Thuridilla gracilis from Coral Sea

October 29, 2000
From: Des Paroz

Hi Bill

I found this slug on a recent trip to the Coral Sea, at Flinders Reef. The specific dive site was Trigger Happy, and the animal was in about 18m.

Sorry about the poor quality of the photo - some battery probs meant the TTL didn't quite happen properly, so the shot is a bit underexposed.

Appreciate any help in identifying this critter.

Best regards
