Annoying Nudibranch

Well, this little fella seems to look like a mix between a Chromodoris and a Phyllidia if you ask me, the skirt of the Chro and the bumps of Phyll

Any ideas? 50 ft, Yap, inner lagoon

Loks like Chromodoris geometrica.

C. geometrica it is.

From Tulamben - Bali:

Thanks everyone, wow it sure is a lot different than the geometrica in the Debelius book that i have....

Hi Mike,

This one's from Sangalaki in Indonesia, but I've also seen in on the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia...

The picture in Debelius' book has an orange cast to it that reduces the contrast of the picture. You should also check out Neville Coleman's 1001 Nudibranchs book that has a couple of pictures of the C. Geometrica. Both books are great for quick reference, by the way.

Cheers,

Mathieu

and for more info and pics on C Geometrica I've put together some information here:
