Pink Polyclad Flatworm, Unknown sp. (Euryleptid?)

This unusual flatworm was found under a rock in North Kihei in an area of rubble, broken coral and plenty of sponge and tunicates.  There were three small flatworms, all looking very much like a compound tunicate or unusual sponge.  This flatworm is not found in Cannon and Newman’s CD or in the Polyclad Flatworms of the Coral Triangle, so for now it is listed as an unknown, new species to Hawaii and possibly beyond.
