Re: Aphelodoris luctuosa from New Zealand

Dear Bill,
reading Phil's message I naturally reviewed the slide in question, plus three others of the same animal. Sorry to disappoint (and relieved I hadn't missed something) but there is only the one animal in that picture. What you surmised could be gills is actually a piece of weed - I think Hormosira banksii. No idea what the "body" is but perhaps a small piece of shell?
Best regards
Mark Burnett
