Elysia viridis from Tunisia

May 6, 2003
From: Anis

Dear Bill,
I found this sea slug in a coastal lagoon, "Lac de Tunis" [south section] in Tunis, Tunisia, North Africa. Depth: 0 to 1m some time between January and March, 2003.

Can you identify it please.
Thanks,
Anis

Dear Anis,
As Kathe Jensen has noted, this is a species of Elysia, most probably Elysia viridis.
Best wishes
