Petalifera ramosa on Sea Grass

February 8, 2001
From: Erwin Koehler

Dear Bill,
In reference to Bernard Picton's suggestion that perhaps Petalifera may live on algae and Phyllaplysia on Sea Grasses, here is a photo of Petalifera ramosa on something I would call Sea Grass. It is from the Philippines, Cabilao Is., depth 15m, size about 1,5 cm, May 2000.
The photo was taken by Georg Heinze [GeorgHeinze@t-online.de
Cheers
Erwin

Dear Erwin,
Definitely Sea Grass and definitely Petalifera. It will be interesting to know if anyone has found Phyllaplysia on algae.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
