Ceratosoma? sp. a217
10mm

This small individual was at Sepoc. Although very similar in appearance to Verconia alboannulata, this species also could be the one figured by Gosliner et al (2018) as Ceratosoma sp. 3. Although the dorsal color is not as deep red, the distinct white bar on the top of the tail, the wider white margins, the shape of the body and the color pattern on the rhinophores seems to me closer to the Ceratosoma, so we are tentatively leaving it here for now.
