Photo request for Aplysia californica

August 3, 1998
From: Panayotis Matsinopoulos

Dear Dr.Rudman,

I am trying to accomplish a small article on neurology experiments on behalf of the magazine Metro, in Greece. Metro is a general purpose magazine.

I know that sea slugs are used in experiments in medicine and I came across with a specific species which is the Aplysia californica. It would be very useful for the readers to have a picture of the referred sea slug.

I was wondering if you have a picture of Aplysia californica and if you allow Metro to use it as an illustration. Of course, your name will be quoted as the source of this particular picture.

Thank you very much in advance

Yours sincerely,

I'm sorry I don't have photos of the species you are interested in but I perhaps someone visiting the Sea Slug Forum from California can help you.
Another possibility is Daniel Gardner, Cornell University Medical College, who hosts the Aplysia Home Tank site .. Bill Rudman
