Miller, M.D., 2001 (Nov 24) Mexichromis cf. multituberculata with egg mass. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/5720Thanks Mike,
This looks very interesting. Although its hard to be sure, the eggs look quite big - and as you can see in my photo they are at least as big as the eggs of Mexichromis festiva, which is a direct developer. Your animal's eggs are also the same colour, but the wavy edge is different. It would certainly be good to see some egg masses from the other species of Mexichromis.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
