Dendronotus diversicolor from California

February 22, 2001
From: Clinton Bauder

I found this pretty slug at a depth or about 20 meters at Mono Lobo Wall in Carmel, CA. I'm pretty sure it's Dendronotus diversicolor. Dendronotus albus is similar and more common in the Monterey area but its cerata are always tipped in orange or brown as opposed to the white on this animal. This individual was about 40mm long.

Dear Clinton,
Thanks for this. It complements a photo of a different colour form I have been sent by Marli Wakeling.
