Concerning message #8590:

I found the nudy at Pulau Payar in Malaysia. Pulau Payar is located in Andaman Sea and I often go there to dive.

Locality: Pulau Payar, 20 m, Penang, Malaysia, Andaman Sea, 04 July 2009, Dredged. Length: 20 mm. Photographer: Shinya Shigemi.

Please see the attached photos.
I think that this nudy is Hypselodoris zebrina.
Am I right ?

Regards,
Shinya

Thanks Shinya,

This is certainly what I have identified as Hypselodoris zebrina. It's good to get another record of this 'long lost' species.

Best wishes,
