Mooney, C.H., 2005 (Jan 26) Mexichromis macropus from South Australia. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/12929Dear Carl,
This is Mexichromis macropus. This species was named from specimens which were from Kangaroo Island in South Australia. The name macropus is from the scientific name for the kangaroo.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
