‘ Dysidea sp. nov.’ of Battershill et al. (2010)

Dysidea sp. nov. [= Dysidea sp. ‘A’ Cook & Bergquist in Kelly et al. (2009: 45), from the Hauraki Gulf and offshore islands, can be compared to Dysidea cristagalli in terms of morphology with a lobo-digitate form and regular surface, but the colouration seems to be distinct, being pastel pink, yellow or blue (Battershill et al., 2010). No material is available for study.
