Hypselodoris dollfusi from Gulf of Oman

January 9, 2001
From: Gordon T. Smith

Dear Bill,

Managed to find some Hypselodoris dollfusi (at last) over in Khorfakkan [Gulf of Oman, east coast of United Arab Emirates]. Also found an area that could easily be described as "nudibranch city". I will have a few more images for you soon.

Regards
Gordon

Dear Gordon,
This is great news. One thing that really excites me about the Forum is how useful it has become as a means of spreading and generating information. It is only a few days since I posted the news about the rediscovery of H. dollfusi, a species which had remained essentially unknown and apparently unrecognisable, since being described in 1933 ... and here, almost immediately, we have another record of it.

I look forward to your other images.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
