From: Sheena

I am doing a research project on the California Sea Hare. I need to know about the growth and development of Dolabella auricularia. Can you give me some information?
Thanks,
Sheena.

Dear Sheena,
Since it's your research project not mine, I'll point you in the right direction. You may not realise that the Forum is more than just a question and answer list. Your message has been placed on a page where you will find a Fact Sheet on Dolabella auricularia and a series of earlier messages and discussion on the species. You will also find links to a page of references on the natural history of the species. You don't say whether you are at school or university so I am not sure how easy it will be for you to access some of the references but most are in fairly mainstream journals.

Also have a look at the Sea Hares page for some general information on Dolabella's relatives.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
