Goniobranchus multimaculosus [Goniobranchus multimaculosus]
Description
As the name hints, this species is marked by multiple spots or blotches that can look like a scattered constellation across its body. Divers often notice it resting in plain sight on the seafloor before it makes a gentle, deliberate crawl. Its bold coloration is a classic warning signal, so it’s a great subject for underwater photography.
