Broken-line Rainbow Dorid [Chromodoris strigata]
Description
Divers often spot this dorid by its vivid, rainbow-like color pattern broken into striking lines. It typically creeps slowly along rocky bottoms and reef surfaces, where its bold coloration stands out against the substrate. Look closely on sheltered areas—its beauty is easy to miss if you’re only scanning the open water.
