Elysia levis [Elysia levis]
Description
This small sea slug is a master of camouflage, often blending in with algae-covered rocks and seagrass. Divers may spot it slowly gliding along the substrate, its body looking like a living piece of seaweed. With patience, you can sometimes see it feeding and holding its position as it grazes.
