Dear Bill

Picking up once again on the theme of mimicry, you will find an attached photo of Chromodoris geometrica and an undescribed flatworm that was photographed by Terry Gosliner on one of our Philippine field trips.


Cheers;
Mike

Thanks Mike,
By coincidence Erwin Koehler has just sent me photos of this distinctive colour form of Chromodoris geometrica.
