Hypselodoris kaname [Hypselodoris kaname]
Description
This nudibranch is often seen as a compact splash of color against sponges and other benthic life. Underwater, it tends to move slowly and deliberately, making it easier to observe its body shape and color contrasts. Divers who scan for it along sponge-rich areas may find it tucked in among the textures it feeds on.
