Asteronotus cespitosus (van Hasselt, 1824)
120mm

We saw two of these around Nggela, one near Tulaghi on 1 April 1992 and the other west of Mbokonmbeti Island the next day. Unfortunately, for one specimen I was out of film and the other was too large for the half life size framers I had on the Nikonos. This partial animal shot will have to do. We have also found this species in Hawaii and the Marshall Islands.
