Dear Bill,
Here are some more photos of Aphelodoris brunnea to accompany my earlier message.

This animal (LCRW0010) exhibited the dorso-ventral flexion movement characteristic of Hexabranchus sanguineus in mid water and mentioned in Gosliner, 1987. It was found by Kevin Reed off Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape, South Africa. 24 February 2002 around 9.15 am at a depth of 10m along with over 30 other specimens. Water temp: 15C. Length: 43 mm.

All the very best,
Lindsay
