Dear Bill

Could you please ID this nudi for us if you wouldn't mind. Is it a species of Chromodoris? Perhaps it is a juvenile form of C.collingwoodi.

It is from Frenchmans Point, Botany Bay, Sydney, NSW in 13 meters.

Best wishes

Dear Akos & Donata,
Your query has made me prepare another page for the Forum. Yes this is Chromodoris collingwoodi which seems to be a regular visitor, if not permanent resident, of the Sydney region. I the photos above you will see some of the colour variation found in the southwest Pacific. I am planning to add some materila from Hong Kong in the near future so I will then add a photo of another colour form from there.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
