Remarks :

Identification proposed by Carlo Magenta-da-Cunha
    This specimen looks like to the large and very polymorphic species of Dolabella auricularia but this specimen seems to be very different in shape (no flattened disk on the posterior surface of the animal ), mantle texture and fringe marging... to for the moment I prefered tuo use the term of Dolabella sp. 1
