Flabellina rubrolineata from Qatar

January 27, 2005
From: Dr. Iain Andrew Macdonald


I believe this is an Aeolid nudibranch, information from a coffee table book (The living seas - marine life of the southern gulf, 1989, Dipper and Woodward) . I have searched some books (e.g. Debelius 2003) the sea slugs web pictures and found none that compare well to it. Any suggestions?

Locality: Clives Crane Wreck, east of Al-Khor, Qatar, Persian Gulf, Indian Ocean. Depth: 25 m. Length: 25-40 mm. June 2004. Photographer: Iain Macdonald
