These can be quite variable in size and color according to the habitat- those by Thailand range purple/blue/rose. The thorns are poisonous causing skin rashes if handled. This species feeds on corals, causing reef damage when invasive, but is still a necessary part of the cycle of a healthy reef when native.
These are 'sea wash balls', the egg cases of the common welk. Each capsule holds about 10 tiny welks- this set looks hatched. : )
I'm wrong! It is a leaf-foot!
It does have spiny hairs- and fits the parameters for Robinia hispida. Thank-you!
This range fits better. Throat coloration is faintly visible, no visible patches or bars that would indicate other types of Sceloporus.
