As if that isn’t enough to be concerned about, the Red-Tipped Sea
Goddess, native to the Pacific tropics, was spotted by Peter Wilcox in
Turquoise Bay last month. It is thought that these may have arrived in
Roatán in ship ballast water. To our knowledge this is the first confirmed
case of an invasive marine species on Roatán’s reefs. Please inform Roatan Maine Park of any
future sightings.
