Concerning message #20112:

Saw the same sea slug swimming close to the surface in Dun Laoghaire Marina, Co. Dublin Ireland. about two weeks ago. Had never seen anything like it before and only identified from an old marine biology text book. Definitely Akera bullata.

Locality: Marina, Very close to surface in 3 metres of wate, Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin, Ireland, Irish Sea, 6 July 2007, Tidal Harbour. Length: about 3 cms
