Dear Bill,

Can you identify this nudibranch from Mauritius please?

It was found at Riambel, Mauritius, in coral Lagoon, September 1999.

Dear Owen,
This is the phyllidiid Fryeria marindica. It is endemic to the Indian Ocean. It is quite similar in shape and colour to Phyllidia varicosa. I discuss the differences at the Top of this Page.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
