Re: Archidoris montereyensis with sculpin

Bill/Marli,
I would think this slug is more likely Diaulula nobilis due to the dark markings on the background of the mantle instead of on the tubercles.

I could be wrong, but I haven't seen Archidoris montereyensis with this type of marking.
Cheers,
Phil

Thanks Phil,
I was wondering myself whether Diaulula nobilis was a better identification but was waiting for some local feedback. Perhaps Marli if you have a photo of the whole slug it might help
Cheers,
Bill Rudman
