Dear Kathe & Bill,
To continue the discussion here are dorsal and ventral photos of a 14 mm specimen of Elysia pratensis from the island of Abaco, in the north-eastern Bahamas. The specimen was collected on July 6, 1991 by pulling a dredge through a Thalassia bed in 2.5 m on the lee side of Whale Cay, Abaco. Other specimens, the largest reaching 21 mm in length, have been collected in similar fashion from the same area.
I hope that these photos are useful.
Best wishes,
Colin Redfern
