Chromodoris species, which one?

March 15, 1999
From: Gordon T. Smith


Dear Bill,

The attached file is a picture of a Chromodoris species that I frequently found in a shallow area of what some people call "mud diving". It was in fact in a marina located in Sharm Obhur (known as the Creek by local expats) just north of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. There is a picture in Debelius' book (p215) but very little information.

Dear Gordon,

I am pretty sure that this species is unnamed. Have a look at Michael Schroedl's message below, and perhaps you should contact him. He may be interested in adding any information you have to his study of the species.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
