Nembrotha kubaryana from Malaysia
September 7, 2002
From: Richard Houghton
Two different colour schemes of what may be Nembrotha kubaryana (one was entirely green, the other had tell tale red markings). Kapalai Island, Malaysia, August 2002.
Coincidentally, both appear to be eating Tunicates - and both photo's were taken on the same dive, around 11am.
Best regards,
Rich

The upper photo of the green animal is Nembrotha milleri while the lower one is indeed a colour form of Nembrotha kubaryana. The 'telltale' red on the edge of the foot is certainly a sign of this species but can sometimes, as in this case, be hard to see.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
