Hypselodoris valenciennesi

(Cantraine, 1841)


Domenico Maiorano Hypselodoris valenciennesi mar adriatico Bari Italia

Ron Silver I believe the currently accepted name for this nudibranch is Felimare picta.

Sylvie Lalane il est beauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Stuart Pearce Great shot :)

Greotti Cesare BRAVO Domenico Maiorano, bel scatto!

Domenico Maiorano Ron Silver: I don't think that it is a felimare picta, take a look at this link -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felimare_picta

Ron Silver I think it is. Hypselodoris valenciennesi has been synonimized by F. picta. See attached: http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=597522

Raffaele Gernone this is an hypselodoris valenciennesi

Carlo Mandola thx O_o but in all book i haved see is write that :( i'am sorry

Carlo Mandola i change name of video and isert u link at description, thx

João Pedro Silva I'm afraid the books you've seen are not up to date. Until mid 2012 you'll find it as Hypselodoris picta (for instance, in the Des Limaces de Reve book on Mediterranean sea slugs) but since it has been changed to Felimare picta. As far as I know, the first book to use the latest revision of the Chromodorididae is the "Sea Slugs of the Algarve" field guide. http://hypselodoris.blogspot.pt/p/guia-de-campo-field-guide.html
