Jorunna tomentosa spawning

September 9, 2008
From: Joao Pedro Silva

Dear Bill,

Here is a large Jorunna tomentosa spawning. At first I could only notice the eggs but a closer inspection revealed there something else in there. The "fur" on the mantle really makes it look like part of the egg mass.

Locality: Peniche, 10 metres, Portugal, North Atlantic, 02 September 2007, Rocky bottom. Length: 3 cm. Photographer: Joao Pedro Tojal Loia Soares Silva.

Cheers,
Joao Pedro
