Pegantha martagon [Pegantha martagon]
Description
Pegantha martagon can be found in areas with abundant benthic growth, where divers might notice it during a careful sweep of the seafloor. Its compact size and camouflaging tendencies mean it’s more often discovered by close inspection than by quick glances. For divers, it’s a great reminder that the smallest creatures often provide the most interesting moments.
