Tambja mullineri from Galapagos

April 26, 2006
From: Clarke Duncan

Dear Bill,

Please can you identify the nudibranch in the attached photo. I found this one, which I think is Tambja mullineri, on one of my inital dives in the Galapagos. I would have sent you these photos earlier, but was not aware of this forum until recently.

Locality: Santa Cruz, 15 m, Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, Pacific Ocean, 26 March 2004, Rocky reef with sandy/fine shale bottom. Length: 40 mm. Photographer: Clarke Duncan.

Best regards,
Clarke

Dear Clarke,
Yes this is T. mullineri which is only known from the Galapagos Ids. I'm glad you have found the Forum - your messages, which I have posted over the last week or so, contain some interesting finds
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
