Elysia papillosa - algal food

March 5, 2004
From: Marina Poddubetskaia

Dear Bill,
This is the alga we found the Elysia papillosa on, which are photographed in our separate message #12333. This 'brush alga' is what you previously identified as Penicillus. Most of these specimens were really tiny (about 5mm)

Thanks Marina,
Yes this is a species of Penicillus, but I will need some help with the species identification.
Best wishes
