Chromodoris roboi from Nelson Bay
January 14, 2004
From: Dave Harasti
Hi Bill,
I have attached an image of a juvenile Chromodoris roboi, this individual was less than 1 cm long. It was found on Christmas Eve [24 December 2003] at Fly Point [Port Stephens, New South Wales, Australia]. Depth was 9 metres and water temp was 22 degrees. It's another one of those 'tropical' visitors that we get in the Bay over Summer. I think the sponge it was on could be its food source.
cheers,
Dave
