F10, Del3. A1762 (1 whole + 1 anterior in formalin) and A1763 (1 half in ethanol; some tissue remaining) are the same lot; synonymize as A1762. Original ID black hesionid. Photos: 2313-18 x2.5. Previously identified as the proposed new species Amphiduros levinae, but A. levinae cannot be distinguished from Amphiduropsis axialensis so A. levinae will not be described. Former proposed paratype.
