Striped Pyjama Nudibranch [Chromodoris quadricolor]
Description
This nudibranch is a striking sight on reef rocks and among sponges, with bold, contrasting striping that looks almost like a little patterned outfit. Divers often spot it slowly gliding along the substrate, using its rhinophores to “read” the environment as it searches for food.
