Chromodoris fidelis from Papua New Guinea

August 13, 2000
From: Stuart Hutchison

Dear Bill,
This Chromodoris fidelis was found on the 'Tuart', a sunken tug boat near Lion Island, Papua New Guinea (next to Loloata in Bootless Bay) at about 12m deep.

Dear Stuart,
Bergh (1905) named this rather distinctive colour form C. flammulata, but at present I can find no anatomical differences from C. fidelis.

Thanks for this great photo.
Bill Rudman.
