Remarks

ANSP A20023

remarks RFB notes: '4 containers with this collection number...the largest container has an entire 'Bottle-Brush' coral w/associated ovulid...I found this in shell bag following the dive...many other gorgonians in bag...can't be sure if this ovulid was on this coral at time of collection??? It was found attached when goodie bag examined. 1 vial w/small yellow ovulid found in bottom of goodie bag following dive...the other 2 vials w/1 each ovulid & sample of gorgonian fan from which they were collected'.P. Callomon, 05 Dec 2003: two vials present; one contains only an orange gorgonian, which I put in a separate subvial within the jar.
