Concerning message #16871:

Dear Bill,
Thank you for the clear explanation of the differences. This will be a great help to me in sorting out the Anculas from the Polycerids - I seem to be able to separate the 'faeros' from the 'quads'. Apart from the head processes, Polycera faeroensis always appear 'fatter' and a more opalescent white, than P. quadrilineata, but I have found examples that are only differentiated by the head processes. Unfortunately I don't get to see these species often enough to be really familiar with them.

Regards,
Jim A
