Nakano, R., 1999 (May 4) Another dorid from Kerama Island. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/831Dear Rie,
Another unfamiliar dorid. From the gill arrangement it is possibly a species of Hallaxa. Perhaps Terry Gosliner has an answer?
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
