Culcita novaeguineae Müller & Troschel, 1842

We saw these variably colored stars at many sites around Bali.

\The commensal shrimp Zenopontonia soror below was found on the Culcita immediately above.

The three Zenopontonia soror below were on the underside of the red Culcita immediately above. They blend in better with the star's dorsal coloration.
