4 New Nudies & Flatworms.....1 Unknown

[Chad_Ordelheide]

A night dive proved very productive yesterday (Accept for the urchins spines in my leg...see my gallery). We found two new flatworms and 2 new nudibranchs. The 4th Nudibranch is the one I can't get a good lead on! I'm not sure about the 2nd flatworm either. If you can help that would be great!!
1.) Pseudobiceros uniarborensis 2.) Paraplanocera Sp or Notoplana species 3.) Berthelina citrina 4.) Unknown

wow, #4 was a good catch. How many times did you have to look to see it?

I'd call #4 a starry bornella, Bornella stellifer. See http://seaslugforum.net/factsheet.cfm?base=bornstel

#3 might also be a species of Berthella. It's hard to say. But I agree with Mark about the Bornella.

Thanks you guys! LeslieH, it seams the Berthella photos I could find had little holes on their backs! The Berthelina seems closer to my picture?? Any guess on the flatworms

You did as good as I could have with the flatties. I just threw the Berthella idea in because sometimes they have a more translucent look than the Berthelinas but that's probably not a good id character.....
