Favorinus tsuruganus eating Hexabranchus eggs

Note: Here is a copy of part of Yves Coze's message on Favorinus eating Hexabranchus eggs so the record of F. tsuruganus can be cross referenced.

Dear Bill,
In addition to the pictures I've sent previously, here are some photos of the Favorinus that are not blurred. They are from Reunion Island, Indian Ocean

Once again they were spotted in a Hexabranchus sanguineus egg ribbon.
Best Regards

Dear Yves,
Your photos contained two species of Favorinus. As I said in your other message, this is Favorinus tsuruganus and the other species is F. japonicus.
Best wishes
