New record of Anthopleura radians (Cnidaria: Actiniaria: Actiniidae) from the Mexican Pacific

ABSTRACT As part of a biodiversity study on intertidal invertebrates, several sea anemones from the west coast of the Baja California Peninsula were collected in June 2016. The taxonomic features of four specimens agree well with those of the species Anthopleura radians, a recently described sea ane...
