Found in Indonesia
April 8, 1998
From: Lindsay Warren
Dear Bill
I have attached a jpg file which I hope you can identify. As with the others they were found around Pulau Hoga in the Tukang Besi islands of SE Sulawesi, Indonesia last September when Bernard Picton was also there. Most of the diving was on walls as previously described heavily covered in hard and soft corals, ascidians, coralline algae and small areas of green / brown algae with depths between 3-20m. Unfortunately I do not have the notes of exactly what surface they were each found on.Many thanks for your help
All the best

Warren, L., 1998 (Apr 8) Found in Indonesia. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/45This is almost certainly Chromodoris magnifica. It is another of the black-lined chromodorids and is fairly easily distinguished from the others by its submarginal orange band around the mantle. Unlike Chromodoris dianae which has only just been named, Chromodoris magnifica was collected in New Guinea by Quoy & Gaimard during the French circumglobal Voyage of the Astrolabe under Dumont d'Urville (1826-1829), one of the first great European exploring expeditions...Bill Rudman
