Cadlina modesta from British Columbia

Dear Bill,
Here is Cadlina modesta. This is the only time I've seen this animal. Very shallow, 15 foot safety stop, grazing quickly on red algae. Found in Campbell River, B.C., on Vancouver Island. [British Columbia, Canada].

Wakeling, M., 2000 (Jun 15) Cadlina modesta from British Columbia. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/2503Thanks Marli,
Cadlina is a sponge feeder, so although it would have been crawling over red algae it would not have been grazing on it.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
