A larger Dendrodoris carbunculosa
December 8, 1999
From: Clay Carlson & Patty Jo Hoff
Bill,
Glad another name showed up for the plain bottomed forms. We have been bothered for some time with the apparent two forms for Dendrodoris tuberculosa.
Here is a record of D. carbunculosa which is slightly larger than Yoshi's.
Data: 410mm; Guam, Apra Harbor, 14m; 6 April 1993. leg. Butch Irish, UOG Marine Lab.

It is certainly a spectacular animal, especially in this colour form.
Best wishes,
