Risbecia tryoni from the Philippines
June 30, 2008
From: Carrie Lo
Dear Bill,
I found this pair of Nudis mating on a wooden fence during a night dive. Not sure if they are Risbecia tryoni.
Locality: Medicare South, Southern Leyte, 8m, Philippines, 22 Dec 2007. Length: 2cm. Photographer: Carrie Lo.
Cheers,
Carrie

Yes these are Risbecia tryoni but although they are nestled together, they need to have their right sides together - where their mating organs are located - before they can mate.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
