Dear Erwin,
It's very easy to confuse Philinopsis gardineri with Chelidonura varians. This one is Chelidonura varians while the one in your other message [#15398] is Philinopsis gardineri. Species of Chelidonura are usually easy to distinguish externally by their long tapering 'tails'
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
