Re: Dondice banyulensis from Turkey

Dear Bill,
I didn't actually consider my message about Dondice banyulensis as a new record for the Eastern Mediterranean, since this species is very common around Turkish coast. It is also found in the Sea of Marmara. The Mditerranean specimens are always brightly coloured, whereas the ones found in the Sea of Marmara are nearly colourless and more translucent.
