Our Jorunna parva is known in the Marshalls from three specimens from Kwajalein, the first found on 25 August 2008 on an eastern lagoon Halimeda patch at a depth of about 8m. It measured 22mm in length.
The specimen found had a deformed mantle, which folded outward on the right side approximately even with the gills.
Here is the same animal shot with a different digital camera, which showed a bit different coloration.
The second specimen was nearly the same size at 23mm, and was in a lagoon Halimeda patch on 26 March 2012. This one is a bit darker.
The side view shows the spotting on the yellow foot.
A third specimen was found by Jay Lord under a rock on the seaward reef.
