Dear Bill,
Do you know a name for this Glossodoris from French Polynesia? I'm afraid I don't have much locality information
Locality: French Polynesia, Pacific Ocean. Photographer: Meketa Pihatarioe.

Koehler, E., 2006 (Jun 6) Glossodoris hikuerensis from French Polynesia. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/16795Dear Erwin,
Although a bit greenish in colour, I am pretty sure this is Glossodoris hikuerensis, which was first reported from Tuamotu Archipelago, in French Polynesia.The colour of the mantle edge with a blackish inner band, then white which merges into the greyish outer zone, is characteristic of this species.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
