Ferretti, L., 2009 (Sep 1) Mating Oxynoe antillarum. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/22618Dear Lureen,
Thanks for these photos of the Caribbean Oxynoe. You mention in your heading that the two animals were mating, although I can't see any sign of it in your top photo. Perhaps they had finished when you took this photo?
More offerings are always welcome
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
