Hintuan Rainbow Dorid [Goniobranchus hintuanensis]

Description

Underwater, Goniobranchus hintuanensis typically appears as a compact, brightly colored dorid nudibranch that blends just enough to be easy to miss—until you notice the vivid mantle. Divers may encounter it on sponge-rich habitats, where it slowly patrols the bottom for food.
