56. Notaeolidia sp. [ Figs 18E–H ]

Notaeolidia Eliot, 1905: 520

Material examined. • 6 spms, Stn. 9; • 1 spm, Stn. 12.

Remarks. Lack of experience with nudibranchs and the limited material did not allow identification to species level. However, we are relatively certain that the specimens we found belong to the genus Notaeolidia . We found it mainly in the intertidal zone and one specimen also in 15 m depth. A comprehensive revision of the genus was published by Wägele (1990). Notaeolidia depressa Eliot, 1905 was found by Rauschert (1991) in the Fildes Strait in 40 m depth on rocks and is deposited in the Zoological Museum Hamburg (ZMH-MOL-0019164).
