Polycera aurantiomarginata? from Turkey

From: Baki Yokes


Dear Bill,
This specimen looks like a Polycera quadrilineata. But it has a different colouration than the ones in Daniel Geiger's message. What is your opinion?

Note: This is Polycera quadrilineata. See message from Lucas Cervera

Dear Baki,
It is indeed a species of Polycera and I think it is probably Polycera aurantiomarginata, a species which previously has only been reported from the Strait of Gibraltar. So a record from Turkey is again a new find.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
