Hypselodoris kanga from NW Australia

May 4, 1999
From: Clay Bryce

Dear Bill,
Here is another species from northwestern Australia. It is from the East side of Bernier I., Shark Bay. H. infucata (again!)WAM568-91. A lot darker than the others and seems different to the other dark H. infucata (specimens that I was calling H. obscura)we get over here. Or is this H. obscura (dark form)?

Dear Clay,
This is Hypselodoris kanga. A bit dark, but the tell-tale gills, triangular in cross-section, with yellowish spots down the outer (non-lamellate) face, are clearly visible in your photo. Probably a new record for Western Australia?
