Micromelo undata from Florida
January 31, 2002
From: Linda Ianniello
Hello,
I see that you don't have any photos of the Atlantic version of Micromelo undata. I have seen it several times off Delray Beach, Florida, in about 15ft [5 meters] of water. The first time was in March, 2001 and then again in the same area this past week [January 2002], always during the day. They are about 1/2 inch long. I hope this helps to "beef up" your display of Florida / Caribbean critters.
Regards,
Linda Ianniello

Ianniello, L., 2002 (Jan 31) Micromelo undata from Florida. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/6125Thanks Linda,
Your contributions are indeed 'beefing up' the Forum's Caribbean collection. If someone told me your photos had been taken in Sydney I would believe them. Certainly externally there seems to be no difference between the Atlantic M undata and the Indo-West Pacific M. guamensis.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
