Nolella dilatata
(Hincks, 1860)
Erling Svensen I have a feeling that this is a tiny creeping bryozoa? This is just 10% of the picture (1:1), so it is not big.
Marco Faasse Sure, a bryozoan, not a hydrozoan.
Thomas Schwaha Looks like Nolella to me
Erling Svensen I see that
Nolella dilatata is common in Norway. It looks like this one? Thanks.
Joanne Porter Great picture Erling, was this with your diopter system?
Erling Svensen No, without the diopter, but the resolution you know... ;-)
Erling Svensen And this encrusting - creeping one.... Very, very tiny. This is just a small crop of the picture. Could this be an bryozoa? Or?
Erling Svensen Yes,
Nolella dilatata is looks like. Thanks.
Bernard Picton Yes, bryozoan.
