Chromodoris geminus from Thailand

January 23, 2003
From: Mary Lojkine

This photo was taken at the Similan Islands in the Andaman Sea, west of Thailand, at a depth of about 12m. The site consisted of coral bommies separated by white sand. The photograph was taken on 9 Jan 2003. The dive site was Batfish Bend, near Koh Miang.

I think it may be Chromodoris aspersa, but I don't see the purple outer margin in any of the photos on your site.
Best wishes,
Mary

Dear Mary,
By chance we have recently had a message from Danny Van Belle with some photos of this species from the Similan Ids. It is Chromodoris geminus.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
