Almost certain is a Tergipes genus but can’t identify the species. The egg cases don’t match with the species that have already been posted. Any ideas?

luca_dtDescrição
Saw two over about 50m.
Medium strength southerly.
Left-handed type.
There was a cool cirolanid isopod stuck on one but it was dead sadly, looked like it may have been stung. I think it was probably caught near shore. No other Neuston life seen.

~40cm long tentacles not fully extended

Again a few active ones at night. I got 'stung' again and no pain. This one is strange with the orange dots all over. perhaps part of a stage in reproduction.

Género PontobdellaObservador
nomennudumDescrição
Marine leech I found underneath a rock, at low tide.
Ca. 25 mm when out of water, to ca. 45 mm when in water.
Using the key in Burreson (2020, Invertebrate Systematics 34), keys to Pontobdella. Unfortunately my images don't show the oral suckers clearly, and I don't know if paired eyespots are present or not. Possibly P. moorei or P. leucothela, based on species that have been recorded in Victoria.

Finally a nice big adult. They are extraordinarily beautiful.
This one was sitting on a small bush of Catenicellid bryozoans, but surrounded by quite a few other bushes.
I also saw a smaller red one in a separate bryozoan (Last image).
~3.5cm long
~3m subtidal
