Re: I think this is Elysia cf. tomentosa

Dear Bill and Nishina,
I agree that Nishina's animal is most likely the same species as Bob Bolland's. However, as I have said before, I am reluctant to say that they are also identical to E. tomentosa. I don't know if Dr. K. Baba managed to publish his paper on the Japanese Elysia "cauze" siblings before he sadly passed away. His anatomical studies indicated that there were some differences from E. tomentosa.
Greetings,
Kathe
