Dear Erwin,

We used to think there were two species of Micromelo, a green one in the Pacific which was called M. guamensis, and a blue one in the Caribbean which we called M. undata, but there were no anatomical differences and as your photo shows, the blue form is also found in the Pacific, so we consider them all to be a single species, M. undata.

Best wishes,

Bill Rudman
