Gymnodoris ceylonica from French Polynesia

November 11, 2002
From: Christophe Naslain

Hi Bill,
Here are a few pictures of Gymnodoris ceylonica taken in Bora Bora, French Polynesia (from my last trip in July-August 2002). All pictures taken in free diving at about 4-5 metres deep with a Nikon F90X-Subal Housing and SB105 strobe. It was close to sunset time, 5pm. I've seen on the same area 4 or 5 G. ceylonica.
I love this species
best wishes,
Christophe

I agree that this is a spectacular species.
Best wishes,
