Plakobranchus ocellatus? from Bali

October 27, 2008
From: Supapong Areeprasertkul

I tried to find the name of this sea slug, but do not found it in the list of Elysiidae. Is it Plakobranchus?

Locality: Beach, 10 metres, Puri Jati, Bali, Indonesia, Bali, 16 August 2007, Sandy bottom. Length: 4 cm. Photographer: Nattapon Annanon.

Dear Art,

This is a species of Plakobranchus, and as I have discussed before, we generally consider there to be the single species -  Plakobranchus ocellatus - but we could be wrong. If there is more than one species, this is possibly the same as Lindsay Warren's animal [message #2135].

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
