Concerning message #19593:
Thanks for the information of the Chromodoris magnifica. When you mentioned the C. magnifica feeding on a red sponge it reminded me of a picture I took recently. It wasn't obvious to me that this nudi was feeding but thought you might have some value for it.
Locality: Off Mataking Island, 50 ft, Sabah, Malaysia, Celebes Sea, 3 February 2007, Reef. Length: 4 cm. Photographer: Mike Krampf.
Thanks as always for the education and your time.

Krampf, Mike, 2007 (Mar 13) Re: Chromodoris magnifica? from the Philippines. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/19646Dear Mike,
Thanks very much for another piece in the puzzle. Although there is no definite evidence that it is feeding on this sponge, your photo is part of a growing amount of circumstantial evidence suggesting that the association of C. magnifica with this sponge is more than a chance occurrence. Although I am not an expert on these sponges, the shape and colour of the one in your photo would suggest it is a species of Negombata.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
