RV Corella Fisheries Laboratory cooperated with the Admiralty Research Laboratory to identify fish detected by long-range sonar equipment installed at the Admiralty Experimental Station, Perranporth. The RV "Corella" was directed from the shore to an area some 65 km distant, that was returning a strong and extended echo. The "Corella" was able to correlate this target with shoals detected on a conventional echo sounder, and substantial catches of sprats were taken in the area using a midwater trawl. The RV "Corella" was used throughout the 1970s for pioneering studies on fish migration. Individual plaice ("Pleuronectes platessa") fitted with 300 kHz acoustic transponding
Hypselodoris kanga white. The inner edge of each gill is reddish orange in the upper quarter, deep blue in the mid region and white in the basal quarter. The smooth outer side of each gill is orange-red in the upper quarter and the rest has a background colour of light blue with a row of large yellow spots. The two outer corners of each gill are bordered with red at the tip becoming dark blue at the base. This species can reach a total length of at least 70 mm and has been observed feeding on yellow sponges from the genus "Dysidea".
