Cycloporus sp.

Scientific name : Cycloporus sp.


Small polyclad (less than 1 cm), with a rounded shape, whitish-greenish background with scattered brown spots, more regularly arranged toward the edge.
Observed in coastal bay, at night, 3 m depth.

Associated organisms
Associated with the ascidian Rhopalaea sp.. Below this there were few colonies of the social ascidian Atriolum robustum. The extraordinary good mimicry of the flatworm with Atriolum robustum (by shape, colour, size) lead us to think that it could be normally associated with this latter ascidian species.
