Bhave, V.J, 2009 (Nov 4) Re: Plocamopherus ceylonicus from Ratnagiri, India. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/22742Dear Vishal,
Thanks. It is interesting to see the egg ribbon laid on a hydroid colony as Plocamopherus feeds on bryozoans. Presumably it does not feel the stinging cells [nematocysts] of the hydroid polyps when it is laying the egg ribbon.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
