Juvenile Hexabranchus sanguineus

May 9, 2002
From: Mary Jane Adams

Hi Bill,
This is my candidate for the smallest Hexabranchus sanguineus record. It is 12 mm long. I found it under a rock about 8 meters deep at Nudi Falls, Lembeh Strait, Sulawesi, Indonesia.

Best regards,
Mary Jane

Thanks Mary Jane,
They certainly don't look much like a Hexabranchus at this size, do they? Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
