SUMMARY
Distribution: Central Indo-Pacific realm. Western Coral Triangle province (Philippines). Also Indonesia (Sterba, 2004).
RV 3327. Philippines, Olango Island, Cebu province, Pangan-an, from fishermen, offshore, February 28, 2017. Scale bar is 1 cm.
Sterba (2004: 78) stated: ".... can be distinguished from O semmelinki by its open filament channel which is -if measured at identical points- 50-60% wider than in O. semmelinki.". Furthermore, the two seem to be found syntopically (at least at Aliguay Island, Philippines).
