Phyllidiella zeylanica from Christmas Island

June 30, 2002
From: Bill Rudman

Here are some more photos of Phyllidiella zeylanica from John Hicks' Christmas Island, Indian Ocean collections. Considering the confusion surrounding some of these species I think it is useful to document some of the variation.

PHOTOS:

LOWER RIGHT & LEFT: AM C126497, 10 November 1980, 9m, on coral rocks, North Arm, Cantilever, Christmas Is. Photos: John Hicks

Best wishes,
