How to recognise Hypselodoris orsinii

From: Jean-Pierre Bielecki


Hi Bill,
Hypselodoris orsinii is a very common species in the south of France [Mediterranean] and among the similar blue chromodorids, there is a very sure way to identify it. There are small blue tubercles on the notum, sometimes only visible with a magnifying glass, but always present.

Size: 1cm
depth: 20m
South of France, Cannes in May 1999

Regards,
Jean-Pierre
