Comatulida sp. 23

Because we cannot see the entire animal in this photo, it is not possible to accurately identify it. What is visible looks a bit similar to the one called Clarkcomanthus mirabilis in Humann & DeLoach (2010) but that does not closely match that species in iNaturalist. This individual was tucked away in a ledge along with some Stylasteridae corals on the Kwajalein Atoll seaward reef.
