Below is comment from Dr. Bill Rudman, go to Sea Slug Forum to read more information
Dear Erwin,
It's very easy to confuse Philinopsis gardineri with Chelidonura varians. This one is Chelidonura varians while the one in your other message [#15398] is Philinopsis gardineri. Species of Chelidonura are usually easy to distinguish externally by their long tapering 'tails'
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
