Iniforis ikukoae (Kosuge,
1963)
12.15mm
Iniforis
ikukoae is moderately
common at Kwajalein. While they have been observed lagoon and pinnacle reefs,
they seem most common hanging from the ceilings of small caves on the seaward
reef at night. The
animal in the photo below is retracted into the shell, but the two black eyes
are visible through the partially transparent shell just back from the aperture.
