Information

Comment from expert, Richard Willan: An unusual colour form from Thailand with large black spots on the dorsum (usually only black speckles in Hypselodoris sagamiensis) and a row of large gold spots submarginally Usually there are only fine traces of yellow, or no yellow at all, submarginally in Hypselodoris sagamiensis). But the red rhinophores and gills are characteristic of Hypselodoris sagmiensis.
