Dendronotus diversicolor from Canada

From: Marli Wakeling

Here's a lovely colour variation of Dendronotus diversicolour which I haven't seen before. They are usually white with orange tips. This is from Agamemnon Channel on the Sechelt Pennisula in British columbia, Canada. Depth 40 feet. Animal is 2cm. in length.

Thanka Marli,
I was going to ask you for a photo of the usual colour form but by chance, Clinton Bauder just has. Do you also find Dendronotus albus there? If so, how can you distinguish from the white form of D. diversicolor?
