Elysia faustula [Elysia faustula]
Description
This species is a small, camouflaged sea slug that often appears as a muted, leaf-shaped form among algae. Under good light, divers may catch hints of its coloration as it slowly creeps along the substrate. It’s the kind of animal that rewards careful scanning—especially around algae and sheltered rock.
