Dear Paul,
Thanks for these nice photos of Chromdoris boucheti which is another species found only in the Indian Ocean. The gills, with their yellow tips, and a black line up the bottom half of both the inner and outer edges, differentiates this species from other similarly coloured chromodorids with black lines on a bluish-white background.
best wishes,
Bill Rudman
