GLUG Prize Quiz
Posted by Neil on July 16th, 2007
Announcing the GLUG Marine Life ID Quiz!!
So, you think you know your Marine Creatures? Test your knowledge with the GLUG Photo Quiz, with the chance of winning some fabulous prizes!
There are 25 photos. For each photo, you must identify the creature (either by common, or latin name - no bonus for givnig both though). Most of the photos have one or more additional questions, for bonus points. You can download the GLUG Quiz Answer Form, and fill it in on your computer. Once it’s complete, click the “Email” button on the form to send it to me.
The Questions have varying degrees of difficulty - there will be some that just about everyone can answer, and others which I don’t expect more than a couple of people will know. In the event of a tie, there will be a tie-break question. The Quizmaster’s decision is final!!
To get maximum points, make your answers as complete as possible - for example if the creature was a “Klein’s Butterflyfish”, then putting “Butterflyfish” would only get you half the available points.
Click on the Photo of the first creature (shown here) to start.
Prizes (donated by me - having a clear-out!):
- An “Absolute Scuba” Scubahide
- A Photobook by Kurt Amsler: “Carribbean“
- A Photobook by Cathy Church: “My Underwater Photo Journey“
Winner will get first choice. There will also be a booby prize! Note: You don’t have to be a GLUG member to have a go at the quiz, but you must be a paid-up member to win a prize!!
Closing date for entries is September 1st - so get thinking!
(If you have any problems with the Answer form, please leave a comment below - but bear in mind I’ll be away from 18th-26th July!)

Thanks, Neil, probably the only chance I’ll have to use my Fish ID books this season… better than them gathering dust on the shelf, I suppose.
Enjoy the Red Sea.
