You are right! A bunch of us actually dived at Inscription Point a few days ago and encountered a female WSD. What a beautiful animal. You may be surprised to hear that the standard name of the species has been changed to common seadragon, but I think it will be quite some time before the name is taken up by the diving community. There is a bunch more information on the species at http://www.australianmuseum.net.au/Weedy-Seadragon-Phyllopteryx-taeniolatus/.

From the 2nd to the 11th of September 2011, hundreds of divers from all around the world participated in this 'underwater snapshot of Australasia' in all kinds of ways. They dived their way from Sydney to Cairns in 10 days, circumnavigated Bali, showed off their favourite 'own backyard' dive sites, travelled long distances to participate in one of the organised Fringe Events or created their own.
