From: Daniel Geiger
Dear Bill,
Here are some photos of Flabellina iodinea for the Forum. They were taken at West Anacapa Island, Channel Islands National Park, California, in 8-10 m, 5 July 2001. The animals were approx 2-3 cm long.
Best wishes,
Daniel Geiger

Geiger, D., 2001 (Aug 3) Flabellina iodinea from California. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/4985Thanks Daniel,
I have oftened wondered why this animal was called the "Spanish Shawl", but your upper photo, of an animal with cerata hanging down, answers the question.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
