Morum macdonaldi Emerson, 1981
18.7mm

Morum macdonaldi was originally described from the Marshall Islands, but we have since seen specimens from Pohnpei, Caroline Islands. It is a rare species, found only along the leeward seaward reef slope in piles of rubbly sand by day or occasionally crawling in sandy bottom ledges at night, usually at depths of 15m or more.
