Elysia rufescens? from Myanmar

April 1, 2003
From: Mary Jane Adams

Hi Bill,
I found two species of Elysia crawling on a vertical wall of Black Rock, Mergui Archipelago, Andaman Sea, Myanmar, Feb. 15, 2003. One of them - separate message - looks like a typical Elysia ornata. The other one, which was about 20cm away, is more problematical. Both were about 4 to 5cm long. Depth: 4 meters.

Best regards,
Mary Jane

Dear Mary Jane,
I ma pretty sure this is what I am calling Elysia rufescens. It certainly looks very like the photo on the Forum of Elysia kushimotoensis, which is probably a bright colour form of this species.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
