"The distinction between Halgerda carlsoni and Halgerda brycei is increasingly difficult to maintain. This individual has the large gold-capped pustules weakly connected by low ridges and spotted rhinophores and gills of Halgerda carlsoni (and I have identified it as that species reluctantly), but there are no orange speckles in the depressions between the tubercles/ridges which is the situation found in Halgerda brycei.
