A pair of Flabellina sp. (nicknamed "verrillis") in a field of pink hydroids, which they eat. These nudibranchs can get up to several inches long and come in orange, purple, and red shades.
A solitary Flabellina sp. crawling across an algae covered rock to its next meal, perhaps those pink hydroids in the right foreground?
We see Dendronotus frondosus at other sites, but they are typically under an inch long. This one was probably 3-4 inches!
Coryphella verrucosa are quite common around New England, but they are larger and much more abundant at this particular site.
I took my fisheye lens for its first New England splash and the results did not disappoint! Giant nudis in a field of pink hydroids in Portsmouth, New Hampshire!
