Bornella sarape and egg mass

Dear Dr. Rudman,

I am glad to see the postings are growing in number and in scientific content every day (I am sure you are thrilled about all the work that means for you!).

Here is a picture of a Bornella sarape I found last Sunday off Islas Marietas, Bahia de Banderas, Pacific Coast of Mexico. At about 50 feet deep and 32 mm long. It is always a treat to find it is so rare.

Cheers!
Alicia

Dear Ali,
Thanks for the photos. It is great to get information on animals like this which we know so little about. As you say however, there is always a little pain associated with such pleasures.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
