Note added 30 April 2007: Until now on the Forum C. sinuata and C. flavicostata have been considered forms of one species. See message #19854 where they and C. magnifica are considered separate species.
Dear Bill
This is the Ceratosoma sinuata I found at the same point I saw the juveniles of the 'Miamira - group'.

Matsuda, K., 2000 (Feb 13) Ceratosoma sinuata from Okinawa, Japan. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/1877Dear Matsuda,
Thanks for the photos. In the lower photo the nudibranch seems to be eating the bluish sponge. If so this is probably the first feeding record.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
