Field Notes

Description:

This giant flatworm was larger than my hand and was twisted around itself. It was mostly black with a white rim around it with two white strips down the middle.

Habitat:

Coral Reef. Spotted on a WWII Japanese Sub Chaser.

Notes:

Please note that I am not 100% sure of the scientific name as the coloration was different. It seemed that most Pseudobiceros gratus' are white with black lines rather than the one that I spotted. If you think I am wrong please let me know.
