Shintosari, A.M., 2000 (Jul 20) Fryeria menindie from Indonesia. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/2725

NOTE added 14 July 2006: Fryeria menindie (Brunckhorst, 1993) was shown by Yonow, 1996 to be a junior synonym of Fryeria picta Pruvot-Fol. Animals previously identified as F. menindie on the Forum have been moved to Fryeria picta.

Dear Aloysia,
This is Fryeria menindie. It looks quite like Phyllidia varicosa but in this species, and other species of Fryeria the anus opens beneath the mantle skirt in the posterior midline.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
