Dendronotus dalli from British Columbia

October 27, 2000
From: Marli Wakeling

Dear Bill,
This is a particularly tiny specimen, about 7.5 mm in length. It's cerata are more finely branched than Dendronotus diversicolor, and is usually smaller. It is not as common either. This is from the Sechelt Penninsula in British Columbia, Canada.

Dear Marli,
This fits the description of Dendronotus diversicolor but I would be grateful for feedback from others about its identity.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.

Note: See my later message suggesting this is the white form of D. frondosus.
