Sea Hares [Aplysia] in Channel Ids

February 18, 2002
From: Stephen R Hoskins

Dear Bill,
Thanks for posting my question on the Seaslug Forum. I wonder if you might post a second one?

Could any readers located on the UK Channel Islands e-mail me if they spot Aplysia sp [Sea Hares] coming in-shore to breed in the next 6 weeks, as I'm NOT located on the islands. I'd be most grateful to receive the geographical location, time and approximate numbers.

Many thanks Bill.
Yours,
Stephen.

Dear Stephen,
Your question raises the interesting question about whether Sea Hares actually migrate inshore for breeding. Have a look at the Mass Mortality Page for some discussion and links on the topic.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
