Edwardsia neozelanica [Edwardsia neozelanica]

Description

This species is often found attached to rocky habitats, where it forms a small, textured presence on the seafloor. Divers may see its tentacles arranged in a way that creates a soft, waving silhouette, especially when currents increase. It’s one of those animals that rewards slow, careful scanning of the bottom.
