Sponge prey of Diaulula sandiegensis

September 28, 2001
From: Jeff Goddard

Hi Bill,
Concerning Marli Wakeling's photo of Diaulula sandiegensis feeding on an "orange finger sponge." The red-orange finger sponges from the shallow subtidal in the northeastern Pacific are Neoesperiopsis digitata and N. vancouverensis. I have observed Diaulula sandiegensis from Cape Arago, Oregon feeding in the lab on the intertidal species, N. rigida.

Best wishes,
Jeff
