Phyllodesmium Nudibranch

Phyllodesmium briareum

Description:

This Phyllodesmium Nudibranch can be found in the plentiful at certain dive sites. They are just round 1 to 1.5cm in length and seldom moves when found on their food source. Most of them time, you can't even make out which end is the head and which end is the tail as the Rhinophores are retracted and hidden. When I took this picture, I didn't even noticed that this Nudibranch was laying its eggs - its the tiny white dotes in a spiral.
