Doriopsis pecten from nthn New South Wales
March 7, 2003
From: Bill Rudman
Here is a photo of Doriopsis pecten from northern New South Wales in eastern Australia. The tubercles on the mantle are smaller and harder than in D. granulosa. In the midregion of the mantle a criss-cross pattern of spicules in skin could be seen in the live animal.
