Hi Bill,
Long time no see. Leanne and I found an interesting one at Halifax Park last week. Couldn't see it in any books. We have seen it only once before. Photo attached. Any idea what it is?

Dear David & Leanne,
Glad to hear from you again. This is the same colour form of Chromodoris striatella as the photo you sent some time ago, although in this photo you can see the thin black lines more clearly in the grey areas. I have only seen this colour form in eastrn Australia at present. If you see it laying eggs, by chance, I would love a photo.
Best wishes,
Bill
