Elysia zuleicae [Elysia zuleicae]
Description
Divers may encounter Elysia zuleicae as a small, leaf-shaped slug associated with algae-rich habitats. Its appearance helps it blend into the visual texture of the seafloor, especially among turf algae and similar growth. With patience and a careful look, you can spot it as it slowly feeds and creeps along the substrate.
