Hi Bill and Bernard:
Concerning the recent discussion about this species. When I first saw this picture it reminded me of a video-record I took of a Cuthona sp from the Strait of Gibraltar that had the same color pattern as Michel's animal. However, later I began to doubt if it was really an extreme color variation of C. gymnota. I only have seen 1 specimen with this exact colour pattern. If it definitely is an undescribed species, it supports the idea of those, like me, that think that all is not known in the Mediterranean yet.
Cheers.
Lucas.
