Costasiella nonatoi [Costasiella nonatoi]
Description
Costasiella nonatoi is a diminutive sea slug that divers may see during careful searches along rocky bottoms and reef edges. Its coloration can look muted at first glance, but closer inspection reveals a distinct pattern and texture that helps it blend while still being recognizable. Spotting one is a rewarding “micro-marine” moment.
