David and Geoff etc

I too have found the odd specimen of Cymatium parthenopeum in fully marine
conditions, but like Geoff have found only one intertidally. It was also
siting out in the open during the day on a sea grass bed at Burrill Lake,
southern NSW about a 100 or so km N of Geoff's specimen and this caused the
species to be included in the CD-Rom of the estuarine and freshwater
molluscs of NSW.

Now back to dissecting new species for the thesis.

Regards

Stephanie
