Re: Flabellina trilineata rhinophores

Hi Doc,
Here are a couple more examples of juvenile Flabellina trilineata without any white markings.  Slide #005503 was taken at Isthmus reef, Catalina Island, California on November 26, 1999, slide #003649 was taken at San Clemente Island, California on September 13 1996. 

Hope this will provide you with enough juveniles with lamellate rhinophores. Sorry it took so long to get back to you, but we were out photographing branchs and other great marine life all weekend, out at our local Southern California Islands. 

Have a great week,
Bruce Wight

Dear Bruce,

Thanks for the photos clearly showing the lamellate rhinophores. The Flabellina trilineata page has been the fastest growing page on the Forum! I have only used two of your four photos, one with orange, and one with brown cerata.

You have made an interesting find.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
