Cobb, G.C., 2008 (Apr 2) Chromodoris elisabethina feeding. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/20951Dear Gary,
This is an interesting feeding record. So far we have only records of this species feeding in thorectid sponges but I suspect this is a species of Dysidea. I will of course have to get its identity checked, but if you have any other photos of it apparently feeding on this, or any other sponge, they would - as I am sure you realise - be very welcome.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
