Comments: Photographed in Coron Bay, Busuanga, Palawan, at about 20 m, by D. Harasti on 20 March 2006 from on the WWII Japanese wreck ‘Olympia-maru’ (ca 5 cm TL). It is the first record of the species from the Northern Hemisphere and suggests that this species is more widely distributed in the central western Pacific Ocean than currently known (Ref. 77064)..
