Paradoris indecora from Turkey

June 11, 2007
From: M. Baki Yokes


Concerning message #16985:

Dear Bill,
Here are some photos of Paradoris indecora from Gokova Bay (SW Turkey). I have examined many specimens, and find that the colouration varies among individuals, except for the black spots, which are always found. In some individuals the tubercles are not observed, however, as can be seen in this series of photos of the same specimen, the tubercles are retractile when the animal is disturbed. Thus, in some photos of this species the tubercles may not be clearly seen.

Locality: Gokova Bay, 5 m, Turkey, Aegean Sea, 25 June 2006, under stone. Length: 32 mm. Photographer: Baki Yokes.

Best wishes

Dear Baki,
Thanks for this record. Are you suggesting Cristian's animal [#16985 ] is also Paradoris?

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
