Hypselodoris sp? from Sulawesi
February 23, 1999
From: Lindsay Warren
Dear Bill,
Here is a sketch made by volunteers, as a photo is not available. The animal was found in the Tukang Besi Islands of SE Sulawesi, Indonesia, as part of the Operation Wallacea project
5-6mm in length. Found on dead branching Acropora. Mantle has a distinct white rim followed by a lemon-lime green tinted band and largely transparent central notum with orange-pink tint coming through from inside the animal. Retractile lamellate rhinophores. 5 simple transparent branches to branchial plume.
SKETCH: Rob Saunders
Best wishes,
Lindsay Warren.

I think I'll leave this one for general discussion. Any one with any ideas?
