Concerning message #22088:

Dear Bill and Dominique,

Two years ago, Luis Sanchez Tocino and I published a short note about the diet of Trapania maculata and T. hispalensis from southern Spain.

  • L. Sánchez-Tocino and J. L. Cervera. 2006. Primeros datos sobre la dieta de Trapania maculata Haefelfinger, 1960 y T. hispalensis Cervera y García-Gómez, 1989 (Mollusca: Nudibranchia). Zoologia Baetica, 17: 85-89.

Regards.
Lucas.

Dear Lucas,
Thanks for letting us know. I was pretty sure there was a recent paper on feeding in T. maculata but I have just converted by bibilographic database to a new program and am still having a few 'teething problems'.

For those of you unfamiliar with the paper, Luis and Lucas report both T. maculata and T. hispalensis feeding on a kamptozoan of the genus Loxosomella which was living on sponges of the genera Dysidea and Sarcostragus.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
