Notobryon from Hong Kong

Hi Bill,
Seeing the pictures of Notobryon appearing on the Forum I wonder if
this animal from Hong Kong, is a different species? It seems to be quite different in colour and shape to Notobryon wardi. Here are two pictures of the same animal.
BEPHK97 - 11 Apr 1983 - NW Kong Chau, Mirs Bay, Hong Kong - 5-10m

Picton, B. , 2002 (May 23) Notobryon from Hong Kong. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/5948Thanks Bernard,
Alicia's messages about scyllaeids from the east Pacific suggest that some of these animals may have green and brown colour forms or phases. I suspect we need quite a few more specimens to be collected before sensible comparative work can be done,
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
