Article Summary:

After a 3-week hiatus for reformatting, the Sea Slug Forum is open for business as usual, according to a post by site creator Dr. Bill Rudman.  Most of the changes won’t be obvious to visitors, but two new features are available: 

1. the ability to display all relevant messages for a species on one page.  I particularly like this one as it eliminates the need to keep clicking back & forth through 20 or more messages at a time.

2. taxonomic searches from Order to Subfamily level - very handy for people who know the group but can’t remember the right genus or species. 

The Sea Slug Forum is the very best opisthobranch site on the web.  It combines images with information on taxonomy, id, distribution, and life history for thousands of species.  UW photographers are a major source of new images & information that enriches everyone’s knowledge of these gorgeous creatures.
