Dear Dr Rudman.
This photo was taken by Laurette Hanekom in Sodwana on the northen coast of Kwa-Zulu Natal in South Africa. I presume it is Phyllidia something but can't seem to find a close match on the Forum. Could you identify it please.
Many thanks
Linda

These grey and black phyllidiids are not easy to distinguish. This is Phyllidiella zeylanica.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
