Wakeling, M., 2002 (Oct 4) Nembrotha cristata from North Sulawesi. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/8093Thanks Marli,
I've added a closeup to show the mouth and the ascidians a bit more clearly. It looks a bit different from the usual ascidian it feeds on.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
