Elysia delcarmen [Elysia delcarmen]
Description
Divers may spot this small sea slug slowly gliding along algae-covered rocks. Like other Elysia, it often looks like a leaf or a tiny patch of color against the substrate, blending in as it feeds. With patience, you can sometimes see it holding position and gently moving its body as it grazes.
