Dear Bill,
Here is a photo of Nembrotha guttata from the Maldives to add to the page on the species.

The specimen was found on 21/9/93 at Kudiboli Tilla, Felidu Atoll, at a depth of 21m.

Best wishes,

Thanks John,
This certainly seems to be a 'typical' N. guttata, but the red rhinophores and green gills seem to be rather unusual. I still think there is a way to go in sorting these animals out.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
