Durvilledoris lemniscata from the Phoenix Islands

October 23, 2002
From: Mary Jane Adams


Hi Bill,
I found this beautiful Durvilledoris lemniscata crawling over dead doral at the base of a bommie inside the lagoon of Orona Island, Phoenix Group, Central Pacific. Stretched to the max, it was only
about 12mm long, but what a beauty! I love the rainbow-banded rhinophores.

Depth: 17 meters,
Date: July 2, 2002.

Best regards,
Mary Jane

It is indeed a beautiful animal.
