Pegantha triloba [Pegantha triloba]
Description
Pegantha triloba is a dainty nudibranch that can be found on or near its preferred food sources, often in areas with plenty of benthic growth. Underwater, divers typically notice it by its slow, steady crawling and its distinctive body form, which can look slightly “lobed” as it moves.
