Hyalinoecia bathyalis [Hyalinoecia bathyalis]

Description

As suggested by its name, this species is associated with deeper environments, so recreational divers may only see it on rare deep dives or in regions where deeper sites are accessible. If encountered, it’s typically a subtle, fine-textured organism attached to the seafloor or hard substrate, best appreciated with careful, steady observation.
