Dear Bill,
Here is another photo of Chromodoris willani on sponge. It seems there are two different kind of sponges, one more rounded and dark (this photo), and one more elongated and of a lighter brown color [previous photo].
On both photos of C. willani, a specimen of C. dianae can be seen on the same sponge. I've to check my archive to see if I have more photos, maybe with different species of Chromodoris on these kind of sponges. If I have, I'll send to you.
Bunaken - Manado - North Sulawesi, Indonesia., December 2003. Depth: 15 meters. Water temp: 29C.
Best Regards

Thanks for this photo. I have just been discussing your 2 sponges with a sponge expert, and her tentative opinion is that they are two closely related species. As soon as I have some names for these sponges I will let you know. In the mean time, more photos of chromodorids on these sponges, or for that matter chromodorids on any sponges would be valuable
Best wishes
Bill Rudman
