Dear Bill,
Here are two photos of Chelidonura fulvipunctata from the Brunswick River. Both were found under rocks in 2 metres on the internal walls and measured approx 10mm. The first was found December 2002 and the second December 2003.

Regards,
Denis Riek.

Thanks Denis,
This species seems quite variable in colour, but the W-shaped mark on the head seems to be a good way to distinguish it from other species
Best wishes
