Yellow-edged Wart Slug [Phyllidia exquisita]
Description
This nudibranch is a real eye-catcher: a richly colored body edged with bright yellow highlights that make it look almost outlined. Divers may find it on or near reef areas where it can blend in at first glance, then suddenly pop as you get closer. Its slow, deliberate movement and bold patterning make it a favorite subject for underwater photos.
