With regard to P.M. Johnson's query about sea hare populations in Australia, I have found that several species are quite common along the Wollongong. A. juliana is particulary abundant on the walls of man-made ocean swimming pools in September. A. sydneyensis can also be quite common. I also know of 4 populations of Dolabrifera dolabrifera (1 at Bellambi and 3 along Bass Point) but these only have an average of 30 individuals.
