Pteraeolidia annulata [Pteraeolidia annulata]
Description
This nudibranch is a colorful treat for divers, with a patterned body that can look almost banded or ringed. It’s typically found crawling over reef surfaces where its prey is present, often moving in a deliberate, unhurried way. If you watch closely, you may see it gently explore the substrate, using its sensory feelers to navigate.
