Koehler, E., 1999 (Dec 14) Is this Phyllidiella zeylanica?. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/1602Dear Erwin,
I think this is P. zeylanica but I am afraid the angle of the photo makes its difficult to be sure. I am not sure of the tubercle and ridge pattern in the middle part of the dorsum behind the rhinophores and so don't have a good idea of the pattern which Brunckhorst considered very important.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
