Concerning message #20547:

Hi Bill,
following Natasja's message on Chromodoris hamiltoni I found this animal on a dive that seemed also to have either a split tail, or was on top of another nudi. The other photos I took showed that it was either damage or an abnormality to its foot. Tofo, where Natasja got her pictures is not too far from Sodwana Bay.

Locality: Sodwana Bay, 18 metres, South Africa, Indian, 20 August 2007, Reef. Length: 45mm. Photographer: Colin Ogden.

Regards
Colin

Dear Colin,

It is certainly a strange abnormality. I suspect it is through physical damge rather than developmental abnormality but that's just a guess.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
