Hi Bill,
Here is a Tritonia festiva with an egg mass. This was found at 'Mo's Reef', at Barkley Sound, British Columbia. This is located on the West Coast of Vancouver Island.

Wakeling, M., 2002 (Mar 26) Tritonia festiva from British Columbia. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/6489
Note: See Jeff Goddard's message and photo concerning the identity of this egg mass.
Thanks Marli,
I see that Jeff Goddard in account of this species described the egg ribbon as a 'delicate rosette'. I wouldn't have described this egg ribbon as a 'delicate rosette'. Is this the usual egg ribbon?
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
