Hi Bill,
We found and identified Okenia zoobotryon in a hypersaline lagoon called Laguna de la Restinga on Margarita Island, Venezuela. I would like to send you the pictures of the specimen so you can confirm the identification
many thanks for your help! GOOD work!

Grune, S., 2005 (Apr 11) Okenia zoobotryon from Venezuela. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/13487Dear Sylvia,
This certainly looks like the photo Kerry Clark sent to the Forum of Okenia zoobotryon [#169]. It would be nice to see the detail of the rhinophores, because in this species there are a few cup-shaped structures rather than a series of flattened lamellae.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
