From: Dave Behrens

Dear Bill:

I have recently published a "Supplement" to Pacific Coast Nudibranchs, second edition, 1991. This paper updates all the nomenclatural changes, adds new range and biological information on the original 217 species
included in the 1991 printing and adds a couple dozen species not previous
known from this region.

A PDF version of the paper titled -

•Behrens, D.W.. (2004) Pacific Coast Nudibranchs, Supplement II: New Species to the Pacific Coast and New Information on the Oldies. Proc. Calif. Academy Sciences, 55(2): 11-54

Long live the Forum.
