Aplysia extraordinaria - another swimmer

September 14, 1999
From: Julie Marshall

Dear Bill,

In the last few months there have been some messages about swimming sea hares from North America. Illustrated here is Aplysia extraordinaria swimming over the reef flat at Heron Island in July 1999. The animal was 120 mm in size.

Best wishes,

Julie Marshall

Dear Julie,
At last the Forum has a swimming Sea Hare photo!
Thanks very much,
