Goniobranchus thompsoni [Goniobranchus thompsoni]

Description

This nudibranch is a colorful, compact dorid that can look almost painted onto the seafloor. When divers find it, it’s usually resting on or near reef surfaces where it blends just enough to be easy to miss—until you notice the bright mantle details.
