Phidiana indica from eastern Australia

April 15, 2003
From: Leanne & David Atkinson

Dear Bill,
Is this Phidiana indica? Are the eggs on the sponge near it possibly from it? Sorry about the quality of the photos. It was quite tiny, 5mm, and the lowest I could go was 2:1.

Date: 2 March 2003
Location: Fly Point, Port Stephens, NSW Australia
Depth: 4m
Time: 10:00 am
Tide: High, 1.73m
Temp: 17 degrees Celsius

Regards,
Leanne & David Atkinson

Thanks Leanne & David,
The slug is P. indica, but I am pretty sure the egg mass is from some dorid.
Best wishes,
