Fryeria rueppelii from the Red Sea

April 25, 2002
From: Marina Poddubetskaia


Dear Bill,
Hear are some photos from my trip at the end of March to Egypt. It was a dive cruise at the North of Red Sea, between Hurghada and Sinai mountains.

I think this is Fryeria rueppelii.

UPPER: : about 6-7cm, 18 March 2002, "Le Carnatic" / North Red Sea, 24m depth
LOWER: about 7cm, 20 March 2002, "The Thistlegorm" / North Red Sea, 22m
depth

Strangely, I saw this dorid only on wrecks (?!).
Best wishes,
Marina.

Dear Marina,
Certqainly the lower photo is F. rueppelii and I guess the upper one is as well but I can't see any sign of the yellow border which is rather characteristic of the species.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
