Dear Bill,

Although it is not as abundant as other alien species, Elysia grandifolia is regularly seen around Uc Adalar (Antalya, Turkey), especially in the beginning of summer. For the last three years we have recorded quite a few of them.

Locality: Uc Adalar, Antalya, Turkey. Mediterranean. Depth: 8 m. Length: 12 cm. June 2004. Rocky bottom. Photographer: Adnan Buyuk

Best wishes

Dear Baki,
Thanks for these photos. The small black spots illustrated here are certainly more 'typical' than the  forms with large black spots and patches which we have seen in recent messages.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
