CP2381, 8°43.3’N – 123°19.0’E , 275–280 m , sandy substrate, 28 May 2005 : 1 ovig. female 8.0 mm. Remarks. The rostrum displays 25 dorsal mobile spines (seven on the carapace proper) and five ventral. The RL/CL ratio is about 1.8. Colouration. Published photographs of freshly collected specimens of this rather common species are rare. The colouration appears variable. Chan & Yu (1985) described three different colour patterns, of which the pink-red is the commonest ( Chan & Yu, 1985 : 290, pl. 1 A–D; Cleva, 1997 , fig. 4F). Of the two ovigerous females photographed during the SANTO 2006 Expedition to Espiritu Santo I. ( Vanuatu ) the colour of body is pale pinkish with translucent rostrum; all appendages are also pale pinkish and more or less translucent. Photo given by Cleva (1997) is also of a Vanuatu specimen.
