Re: Nembrotha milleri & Nembrotha sp 14

Hi Bill,
I missed this discussion at the time. I'd just like to say that I have seen Nembrotha milleri alive, as well as Nembrotha sp. 14. I don't think they are the same species, these Nembrothas are particularly hard to photograph adequately as the colour seems to come out quite different on film to real life! I certainly considered N. milleri when I was in Tanzania, the body shape and jizz seemed different to me!

Dear Bernard,
As I said in the earlier discussion, I also have my doubts that they are the same. I'll make sure your doubts are clearly noted on the Fact Sheet.
Cheers,
Bill Rudman
