Armina cf magna Baba, 1955
100mm

This large Armina was exposed on the sand during the day at Bubbles. By overall color and in particular the small yellow tips to the rhinophores, this appears closest to Armina magna in Gosliner et al (2018). However, they report the species as collected in trawls and nets at depths greater than 100m, while ours was found somewhat shallower, perhaps 35m.
