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/.
