Bobtail squid species
This Bobtail squid is adorable, but is it really Euprymna scolopes? In most of the pictures I've seen, E. scolopes is light-colored and sort of whitish; the squid in your picture is a dark bluish-purple. It looks more like E. berryi to me... but I'm certainly no squidologist! If you're uncertain about the species too, maybe it would be better just to classify it as Euprymna sp. until an expert comes along? Vectornaut (talk) 02:43, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
Cuttlefish
Hi there. Do you know what species of cuttlefish this is? Wonderful image by the way! Mgiganteus1 (talk) 09:54, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
Mgiganteus, thanks for the comment. I am pretty sure this is Broadclub Cuttlefish, Sepia latimanus. I will update the entry with this information. Nhobgood (talk) 19:39, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
Comb jelly
Hi Nick -- It is a nice picture, but your comb jelly is a little pyrosome (a colonial salp) and not a ctenophore. beroe (talk) 20:34, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
Thanks Beroe. The image has been moved. Nick Nhobgood (talk) 01:12, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
Gastropod images
Hi Nhobgood! I wanted to thank you for your really superb marine gastropod images. Invertzoo (talk) 17:48, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
My pleasure and I hope to collect more soon ! Nhobgood (talk) 20:57, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Ah, a couple more excellent images made into new stubs! Invertzoo (talk) 01:20, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Osttimor
Hi there. I notice East Timor has no fauna/ecology section. Do you have sources to write - or at least start - such a section? A couple of years ago, I wrote the equivalent section in Indonesia. regards --Merbabu (talk) 23:23, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

The rules are published here : http://photoclub.biganos.free.fr/images/stories/PCVE/zoom33/Salon%20Pessac%202010/r%C3%A9glement%202010.pdf
Yours photographs retained our attention and we would be pleased to count you among our guests. If you agree to participate, we ask you to send us around ten pictures representatives of your work. These pictures can be printed on paper (maximum format 30 x 40 cm), but you also can send us high definition digital files. We will print your files on a calibrated professional machine. These files can be sent on a CDrom to the address located above, mailed at [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>_ or downloaded through links from a web site.
We would really appreciate a short note for presenting you and your work to the public and for printing on the catalogue.
Obviously, the pictures or the prints we will make of your submissions will be returned to you with the catalogue. Your postal fees will be reimbursed. We do not have a lot of money, but we will do our best to send you a small souvenir.
Waiting for a positive answer, we send you our best regards.

I've nominated one of your images for featured picture status here. I thought you'd like to know :) J Milburn (talk) 23:45, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
And another :) J Milburn (talk) 10:48, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks J Milburn, Much appreciated. Nick Nhobgood (talk) 16:21, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
Sorry about the debacle that was the last FPC nom, but I have started another with your goby shot, after I wrote an article on the genus. Hopefully this one will go more smoothly. J Milburn (talk) 20:59, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks! Nhobgood (talk) 12:18, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
That commensal relationship
Hi, your beautiful pic will be displayed in the next edition of The Signpost.
I wonder, BTW, whether you'd consider being our invited judge for next week's Choice of the week? It would mean writing a short paragraph on Saturday or early Sunday, after our Saturday–Friday weekly window closes. Please let me know. Tony (talk) 12:52, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks Tony! I would be happy to participate. - Nick Nhobgood (talk) 10:42, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
