Dear Bill,
Even if this animal shows a mix of colour patteren between Facelina coronata and F. bostoniensis, I think that it belongs to the 2nd species. One of the main features of the 1st species is the reddish patch on the head caused by the oesopahgus. That does not appear in the 2nd one.
Cheers.
Lucas.

Thanks Lucas,
Any thoughts on Erwin's suggestion that it might be F. dubia?
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
