I thought this one was strange with shorter arms which do not bulge at the end. But I think it is just a large adult.

This was a nice surprise. A couple adults and some juveniles on the farthest snorkel trail buoy. It will be interesting to see how they last. The juveniles are certainly australis, it's a bit harder to tell for the adults.
