Dear Bill,
Here is another opisthobranch from Recife in Brazil. I don't know if this animal with blue spots is a juvenile of Bursatella leachii [see my earlier message #13150] or is another species.
They both occur in the same mangrove connected to the sea.
Locality: Mangrove, Pernambuco, Recife, Brazil. Depth: 1 m. Length: 35 mm. 5 February 2005. In sediment. Photographer: Vinicius Padula

Padula, V., 2005 (Feb 16) Stylocheilus striatus from Brazil. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/13129Dear Padula,
This is Stylocheilus striatus. This species often occurs with Bursatella leachii all around the world, although Stylocheilus is also found in more open water and reefs, while Bursatella is usually found in quieter waters, such as mangroves, coastal ponds and sheltered silty bays.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
