Dear Dr Rudman

I would be most grateful for your assistance in identifying this species. I saw this 1cm slug when I was wall diving at 27 metres in Pulau Tenggol, West Malaysia in March 2002. Photo: Mabel Fang

Dear Philip,
This is an interesting find. It is Pectenodoris aurora. Your animal is much bluer than in the original description so it gives a useful information on the colour variability of the species. If you could give me some precise locality information it would be useful
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
