Concerning message #17491:

Hi Bill and everyone!
After reading Julies entry I thought I would send ours on Goniodoridella savignyi. We have found this species with almost brown coloration instead of yellow. The amount of yellow is very variable. Note one photo has what appears to be no gill papillae.

Locality: Mooloolaba, Sunshine Coast, 15 m, Queensland, Australia, Pacific Ocean, 15 June 2009, Subtidal. Length: 6 mm. Photographer: Gary Cobb and David Mullins.

Cheers
Gary Cobb

The brown coloration is an interesting variation
