Cycloscala sp. 1
8.0mm

This small Cycloscala was found eating a small anemone at night on a Kwajalein Atoll lagoon pinnacle by Stan Jazwinski. The shell is somewhat similar to Cycloscala hyalina but is more elongate with more distinct crenulations on the axial ribs. The anterior tentacles are distinctly banded with reddish maroon and white, which differs from the maroon with a few white spots on C. hyalina.
