Hypselodoris peasei [Hypselodoris peasei]
Description
This nudibranch is a colorful reef-dweller that divers may encounter on sheltered rocks and under ledges. Its striking coloration and smooth, rounded body make it look almost like a living patch of reef color. When you approach slowly, you can sometimes observe it inching along the seafloor as it searches for food.
