Odontoglaja guamensis Rudman, 1978
10mm

Odontoglaja guamensis was quite common at Enewetak and Kwajalein Atolls with more than 100 specimens counted on Enewetak lagoon reefs and pinnacles in less than three years, and many specimens observed in algal mats on the Kwajalein Atoll's seaward reef since then. We also saw specimens at Utirik Atoll, and John and Lynette Flynn reported it from Rongelap. Sizes of the animals generally ranged from 5 to 10mm.
