Glossodoris cincta from Bali

May 14, 2005
From: Sabine Noack

Dear Bill,
Here are 3 photos of Glossodoris cincta taken in Bali. All were taken in shallow Water (~6m) close to the beach right in front of the Liberty wreck.
I spotted the pair in the upper photo slowly crawling across a mud covered sponge (?), they seemed to be feeding (?). The closeups  show the typical Indonesian coloring.

Locality: Tulamben, Liberty Wreck, Bali, Indonesia. Depth: 6 m. Length: 4-5 cm. 02 October 2002. muddy, close to beach. Photographer: Sabine Noack

Dear Sabine,
Thanks for these. I agree they do seem to be associated with a sponge but I'm afraid its too obscured to identify from a photo.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
