From: Erwin Koehler

Dear Bill,
This photo is from Gran Canaria Island, Spain,[Canary Ids, off the west coast of Africa] taken by Arthur J. Telle,
Email: mercedes@idecnet.com
size about 8 cm, depth 2 m, February 1998, divesite Las Canteras.

I think it is a Platydoris but according to C L E M A M at http://www.mnhn.fr/base/malaco.html
there are reported in Europe:
•Platydoris argo (Linné, 1767)
•Platydoris dura Pruvot-Fol, 1951
•Platydoris maculata Bouchet, 1977
•Platydoris philippi Bergh, 1877
•Platydoris stomascuta Bouchet, 1977

Can you identify it?

Dear Erwin,
It looks like a Platydoris, and hopefully someone can identify it for us.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
