Hi Bill,
Here is the last from my summer journey! This tiny critter looks like Glossodoris pallida. This was on a much covered wreck of a Japanese mini submarine, near New Hanover, Papua New Guinea.

Thanks Marli,
I've got your messages out of order so although this might have been the last you sent from you summer holidays, there are still a few to appear on the Forum. It is interesting to compare the colour of your animal with that in the photo Nishina recently sent of one from Japan, in which the yellow was a dull cream colour and the white mark on the back was invisible.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
