Re: Glossodoris stellatus in Papua New Guinea

Dear Bill,
Following Mary Jane Adams' message [#13505] I confirm I've always seen Glossodoris stellatus, in Indonesia, on the underside of this sponge (probably Phyllospongia lamellosa), often with the same yellow egg coils shown on Mary Jane Adams' second message [#13506]. I must add that Glossodoris stellatus is not the only nudibranch I've seen on this sponge: I've spent few night dives looking only under these sponges and I remember I saw some small species I couldn't identify. I'll try to find the photos and send you a copy.

Best regards

Dear Roberto,
I'm sorry I didn't post this message earlier - I thought I had. Your message on Glossodorissp. 14 [#14225] reminded me. Any photos of an animal on its sponge would be a valuable record
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
