Noumea crocea from sthn Queensland, Australia

From: Bruce Wilkie

Hi Bill,
I was reading your reply to Craig Beasley [#15697 ] and your general comment about multiple species in one post. As my last post contained 3 unknowns,  I will send you the 3 unknowns again but this time individually.
(being new to this forum, I am still finding my way around.)
Also thanks for the correct spelling for C. elisabethina. In one of the books I have it is spelt with a "z".

Locality: Manta Bommie Point Lookout North Stradbroke Island, 8 metres, Queensland Australia, Pacific ocean, 7 January 2006, rocky reef with sponges, hard & soft corals. Length: 20 mm. Photographer: Bruce Wilkie

I have since identified this little fella as Noumea crocea. Could you please confirm?
Many Thanks,
Bruce Wilkie.

Dear Bruce,
Thanks for splitting your message up. In the early days of the Forum when messages weren't so frequent I wasn't so pressed for time, but now I am desperate for any help I can get from those sending messages to make the 'editing' part of my task as easy as possible.

Yes this is Noumea crocea.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
