If anyone knows where I can get information about what kind of opisthobranch could be found in the Caribbean coast of South America, specially Colombia, please let me know.

Dear Phanor,
I have just seen your message to the Forum asking for information on Caribbean nudibranchs. Did you get my earlier message?

I am afraid there is little more to add. There are no good books on the Caribbean opisthobranch fauna, and the scientific literature is not very comprehensive, or very good, many descriptions being based on preserved animals.

I repeat my earlier suggestion. If you can send scanned photos to the Forum I will post them up. If there are people who can identify them, I am sure they will reply to you. If you are unable to scan photos, you can post them to me and I will scan them and return them to you.

My postal address is:
The Australian Museum
6 College St,
Sydney,
NSW 2010
Australia.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
