Hi Bill,
As I promised in my earlier message on Chromodoris cazae, here are some more pics [#12133].

The photos were taken in a place called Doha, Qatar, Persian Gulf while I was employed out there about 20 years ago The bulk of the pictures were taken 2nd February 1979 in 12 metres of water,

Best regards

Thanks very much Tony,
The colour of your animals seems to be consistently more purple than the red in the photos accompanying the original description of this species. I guess its possible that the difference is a result of some photographic processing mishap. Now that we have a few photos on the Forum, hopefully vistors to the region will keep an eye out for this species and let us know whether it is variable in colour. Thanks also for the photos of C. obsoleta [#12729].
Best wishes
Bill Rudman
