This excellent photo shows the paddle-shaped ends to the oral tentacles and multicoloured ceratal tips very well.

Comment from Richard Willan on photo #796
A good photo showing the distinctive features of this species – paddle-shaped oral tentacles, white areas on the body, red and white rings near the tips of the cerata.

A typical individual.

A nice photo showing the enlarged, paddle-shaped oral tentacles very well.

Comment from Richard Willan on photo #304
The specific name, bilas, refers to a coloured spear tip and that’s just what the cerata of this species look like.
