From: Anne Owen

Dear Bill,
Can you help with this nudibranch which I found at Lembeh, Sulawesi, Indonesia in March, 2002 - stunning contrast to the green Halimeda, again photo's in about 40-50 feet.

Hope you can help.
Anne

Dear Anne,
I can't give you a name but I can give it a friend from the Philippines. This is the same as some photos Erwin Koehler sent from the Philippines and I have until now left amongst the unidentified. I suspect this animal is an unnamed aeolid of the genus Sakuraeolis, so I have put both your message and Erwin's together as Sakuraeolis sp. 1.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
