Excellent collection! Out of curiositiy, where did you find the scientific names of all of the different nudibranchs in your collection?

Thanks, Everyone! I know some of the shots are terrible, but at least it gives me an ongoing project

The names are from a variety of sources and mostly cross-referenced where I could. www.seaslugforum.net; 1001 Nudibranchs by Neville Coleman; Nudibranchs & Sea Snails Indo Pacific Field Guide by Helmut Debelius; WA Sea Slugs by Bryce are a few...

I don't like "common" names for these guys - virtually all in the 1001 book are simply made up and most people I talk to don't actually have common names at all for them beyond "orange spotted white nudi"!

Some are still outstanding or questionable and I am working to update these as I can...

Wow....what great combinations of colors. I don't think I've ever seen so many at one time. Thanks for sharing them.

I'm not really a nudie fan but after looking at all those I decided the spikey ones are my favorites. Like this one...
