Hi Bill,
Concerning message #14852:
I agree with your identification of Steve Lonhart's aeolid as Cuthona lagunae. The orange rhinophores distinguish it from the other NE Pacific species of Cuthona, and the cerata of C. lagunae are tipped with bright orange, have very dark cores and lack the white flecks of C. fulgens.

Best wishes,
Jeff
