From: Bill Rudman


To accompany Leanne & David Atkinson's message [#18549], here is another record of Chromodoris daphne feeding.

Locality: Shiprock, Port Hacking, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. 7 m. 20 December 1982, many specimens, 20-35 mm long on food sponge. Coll: G. Avern. AM C137068. Photos: Bill Rudman.

Many specimens were found, all on a large empty beer bottle which was completely covered in a colony of the purple darwinellid sponge Chelonaplysilla violacea.

Best wishes
