Hypselodoris nigrostriata from Sulawesi

July 10, 2002
From: Mary Jane Adams

Hi Bill,
I saw several slugs like this in Lembeh Strait, Sulawesi, Indonesia. All had purple striations and red rhinophores with white tips. The gills are red with a central white spot or streak. I did not see yellow spots on any of them in this area. This image is from Teluk Kembahu, a mucky sand slope, April 20, 2002. It was 25mm long. After reading the description of various striated Hypselodoris species on the Forum, I think this best fits H. nigrostriata.
What do you think?

Dear Mary Jane,
I would certainly consider this to be Hypselodoris nigrostriata.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
