Description

This tiny, uncommon, more-or-less adult ctenophore was 4 mm long. The four orangy-red pigment spots are diagnostic. It is also unusual because the pair of simple, unbranched tentacles exit near the mouth, not towards the aboral pole like most cydippid ctenophores. Hand-dipped from the surface plankton and photographed in an aquarium.
