Hello Bill,

Is this Glossodoris pallida? It has a white marking on the foot, but not on the mantle.

Locality: Tofo, Mozambique, Indian Ocean, 17 July 2007. Photographer: Natasja Vandeperre.

Greetings,

Dear Natasja,

Certainly the white marking on the foot is found in G. pallida, but I would have been happier with some sign of the opaque white markings usually found on the mantle as there are quite a few white species with yellow markings. However I think we are best considering it to be G. pallida.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
