Glossodoris rubroannulata from southern Queensland

November 25, 2005
From: Rachel Murphy


Hi Bill

These two Glossodoris rubroannulata, while head to tail, weren't actually doing the deed. Hung around the area for about 7min (which seemed interminable) but nothing more than sidling next to each other. They were on the underside of a boulder which made for difficult viewing and photography in the surge. It was about 4.30pm and the sea temp 23C.

Locality:  Flinders Reef,  Brisbane, QLD, Australia. Depth: 9 m. 19 November 2005. Coral Reef. Photographer: Rachel Murphy
