Dear Bill,

Here is a photo of Archidoris wellingtonensis from Inverloch, Victoria, Australia. The specimens seen there seem to be a brighter colour than many of those pictures on the Forum. Has not been sighted this year, but in 2000 we saw 15 on one day. [approx 13cm long]

Thanks Joan,
Its nice to get photos of these relatively common species. Since these are the species most likely to be encountered, it is good to have photos showing their variability easily accessible on the Forum.
Cheers,
Bill Rudman
