Concerning message #1448:

Dear Bill,

It is another dorid which looks like Geitodoris planata. Somehow, the rhinophores and gills fit this species and I think I can see the distinctive yellow spots on the mantle. Do you have a closer view to confirm it, please ?

Best wishes,
Marina

Dear Marina,

Thanks, but I don't have a higher resolution photo - this was early days on the Forum and computer monitors couldn't handle high resolution files. I tend to agree with you but I suspect it is best to consider this one unidentifiable.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
