SAMPLING IN NOUMEA

September 5^th, 2022 – Valentin Dutertre, Nicolas Charpin and Serge Rolland (from left to right) are currently diving in New Caledonia, around Noumea, to collect samples for the ERC project. On the menu: Conus striatus, Conus magus, Oliva amethystina and one species of Cancellariidae (to be identified). Over the next few days, they will also be night diving to collect marginellids, which suck the blood of parrot fish at night. Good luck!
