Red-striped Medusan Sea Cucumber<br />
Opheodesoma aff. gri<strong>sea</strong><br />
This “species” is probably comprised <strong>of</strong> several actual species, such as <strong>the</strong> one pictured above. It<br />
is grayish dorsally with indistinct red longitudinal stripes and whitish ventrally with similarly<br />
coloured tentacles. It appears to grow longer than <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r forms <strong>of</strong> O. gri<strong>sea</strong>, to perhaps a<br />
metre in length.<br />
