Philinopsis pilsbryi? from the Philippines

Dear Bill,
Here is a photo of something I would like to call Philinopsis pilsbryi, but it is possibly something else. It is from the Philippines, Negros Oriental Is., depth 10m, size about 2 cm, taken by Georg Heinze

Dear Erwin,
I am pretty sure that it is a colour form of P. pilsbryi but perhaps it is best to call it Philinopsis cf. pilsbryi at this stage.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
