In reference to earlier messages on Pleurobranchus membranaceus feeding [m11604], here is another image of this species from the cliff face south of Kenmore Point in Loch Fyne, Scotland. The image was taken on 22 June 1991, and in my logbook I noted that there were multiple specimens around the 6 - 7 metre mark with egg cases evident.
