Hua Thai Tuyen, 2008 (Jun 5) Phyllodesmium magnum from Nhatrang, Vietnam. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/21582Dear Tuyen,
This is a species of Phyllodesmium, and I am pretty sure it is a juvenile Phyllodesmium magnum. The white patches on the cerata and the yellow tips are often present in this species.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
