Dear Bill,
Came across this Chromodoris annulata during my dive at the Andaman Sea early this year. Took a few pics while it was "gliding" on the wall of big boulder.

Locality: Bida Nok Rock, Phi Phi Island, Approx. 16 metres, Phuket, Thailand, Andaman Sea, 4th Jan 2006, Wall covered with softcorals & silt.. Length: About 4cm. Photographer: Asther M. Lau.

Regards,
Asther

Dear Asther,
As I've commented before, it is very interesting to get records of C. annulata from Thailand. Apart from one puzzling, (and not repeated) record of this species from the Gulf of California (Kerstitch, 1989), it was only known before from the western Indian Ocean.

Best wishes,
