Hi,
Can anyone help id which Flabellina these may be? Found at 40-45 feet in Hakai Pass - Port Hardy area, BC, Canada. Are they just variations on the same theme?

Note added 25 July 2002: See Marli Wakeling's message identifying the bottom right animal as Cuthona punicea.
Dear Wendy,
I am pretty sure that the upper right and lower left photos are of Flabellina verrucosa, the white-tipped cerata, the white line on the oral tentacles and the white line down the 'tail' all suggest that species. I am not so sure of the third photo [lower right] however and so if someone with local knowledge can comment I would be grateful.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
