Looking for live Akera bullata

November 20, 2009
From: Jeffrey S. Prince

We are investigating the evolution of the sea hare ink gland by ultrastructural comparison with other sea slugs and to finish this work we need a living specimen of Akera bullata sent [will pay shipping and handling and acknowledge in papers individuals involved] when they are available in the natural environment.

This work is being conducted in the Dauer Electron MIcroscopy Laboratory, University of Miami, Coral Gables FL. 33124.

Dear Jeffrey,

I suspect this is the wrong time of year for A. bullata.

If anyone can help please contact Jeffrey directly.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
