Diadema palmeri

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Diadema palmeri is a sea urchin of the Diadema family. It was first discovered by William (Bill) Palmer, at a depth of about 40 metres (130ft) off the Poor Knights Islands (35º28´S 174º44´E), a small group off the temperate North Eastern Coast of New Zealand. The species has also been found in other sub-tropical regions around the South Pacific at greater depths including Australia's lower east coast - off Danger Point to Montague Island, NSW (at about 200m), Lord Howe Island and the Norfolk Island Ridge.
