Discodoris boholienis from Vanuatu

From: Vinka Stenhouse

Dear Bill,

Is this Discodoris boholienis? I found it in Espiritu Santo Is., Vanuatu, 1997, crawling over sand in the early morning. Intertidal. It was 7cm long.

Yours sincerely,

Vinka Stenhouse.
Santo.
Vanuatu.

Dear Vinka,
Yes it is Discodoris boholiensis. the very narrow median 'crest' and the small often brown tipped tubercles on the mantle are quite characteristic.
