01 Atalodoris sparsa

Broad oval outline. Specimen with small amount of brown pigment (may have faded in over 160 years since printed). Around the base of each rhinophore, there are three or four large splayed tubercles that, apart from some apical brown pigment, are lighter than the adjacent mantle. There is a characteristic smooth, pale, sometimes dark, patch behind each rhinophore.

Alder & Hancock (1845-1855).
