Dear Bill,
The Echizen coast in winter is very cold and rough. It's a very severe winter for nudibranchs. The period when they can become active is for the three months from July to September. The population explodes during this summer period.

Dear Nishina,
I separated these photos from your message about Hypselodoris maritima as these are the similarly coloured species Hypselodoris sagamiensis. Can you confirm these are its egg ribbons?
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
