Flabellina rubrolineata from Persian Gulf

From: Gordon T. Smith

Dear Bill,
Here is what I believe to be Flabellina rubrolineata. Approximately 10mm long at about a depth of 18 metres on a Wreck in the Persian Gulf.

Thanks Gordon,
Yes this is Flabellina rubrolineata. Animals from the NW Indian Ocean - Red Sea region seem to have a distinct purplish tinge to the red.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
