Chromodoris roboi from Exmouth, Western Australia

April 3, 2008
From: Bruce Potter

Dear Bill,

While thinking of blue black and orange Chromodorids, I have just noticed that this Chromodoris roboi is also blue black and orange.

I also found this under the Exmouth Navy Pier. It is a beautiful little critter.

Locality: Exmouth, 14metres, Western Australia, Indian Ocean, 5 October 2007, under a jetty. Length: 35mm. Photographer: Bruce Potter.

Regards
Bruce Potter.
