Polycera capensis south of Sydney

March 6, 2000
From: Erik Schloegl

Dear Bill,

Finally I again found some time to browse the Sea Slug Forum and on the page on Polycera capensis I came across your remark that you'd be interested in any records of this animal. This photo was taken on March 22, 1998 at Osborne Shoals, a dive site just outside Port Hacking, New South Wales. [southern outskirts of Sydney]

Best regards,

Thanks Erik,
Why I am interested in records is to see whether it is a permanent member of the fauna or whether sightings are the result of irregular arrivals of breeding adults on the bottom of boats.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
