Euryleptid H
photos from Kauai by Graham Talaber

Graham Talaber found this tiny whitish worm off Kauai in January 2026 (he placed it in a container for the photo). Graham writes: "These have been somewhat abundant the past few nights found floating upside down attached to surface tension."

There is nothing quite like it on the Newman & Cannon CD, but its elongated oval body, true marginal tentacles, and elongated cerebral eyespots (partially joined) strongly suggest the family Euryleptidae.
