Flabellina verrucosa from British Columbia
October 24, 2003
From: Bruce Wight
Dear Bill
Here are some photos of Flabellina verrucosa from our recent trip to British Columbia.
Johanna and I were up at the Northern end of Vancouver Island the first week of October diving around Port Hardy and Browning Pass, British Columbia. This was our first time diving in Canada.
The Flabellina verrucosa were very abundant and were found feeding on Tubularia up in the shallower water less than 40 feet deep.
Take care,
Bruce Wight

Wight, B., 2003 (Oct 24) Flabellina verrucosa from British Columbia. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/11287Thanks Bruce,
They ceratinly have done a good job on the Tubularia. I think the two polyps in the top photo are the only two stalks left with a polyp intact. I knew the tail of this species was quite long, but your photo shows just how far it can extend
Best wishes
Bill Rudman
