I doubt these have a name, but they were on a piece of rock I got and they are quite interesting. Not sure if you can make it out on the pics (I need to figure out how to get more reach out of my macro lens!), but they are green with a yellow ring and white specks on it with a purple middle.

Both are from the same colony. The first picture has the skirts more browned out.

I don't remember rastas having white specks, but I agree - very very similar. The orange ring does seem to be alot less dense but then again... this could be all due to lighting conditions? Regardless, sweet hitchhiker...:)
 
Plus I would consider the ring more yellow then orange, but hey, who knows. Sorry that their position in the tank makes it hard to get a real good picture.
 
where did you get that rock from?

I'll be honest, I have no idea!! It may have just been in my tank because right now all that I have attached to it is my Purple Death colony, which I epoxied to the rock (so it isn't like I bought a separate colony and these came along with it). Spontaneous generation? :)
