Phyllidiella meandrina from Indian Ocean [2]

Dear Bill,
To accompany my earlier message, here is a photo of the most common nudibranchs of Reunion and Mauritius. The sponge it is on may be of interest.

Dear Marina,
This photo showing the yellowish sponge on which this Phyllidiella meandrina is sitting, could be of interest, as I recall it being nearby in a number of your recent photos of phyllidiids. At this stage I can't identify it, but perhaps we should think of it as 'banking' this information so it will be available when we get a sponge expert with a love for nudibranchs to help us out.
best wishes,
Bill Rudman
