We have Nudi's in Texas! I found one yesterday in Twin Lakes.

LOL...OK, so it was a drowned catapillar. :rolleyes: But you have to admit it's sort of Nudi-like! It'll have to do for my contribution as it's the only one I have!
 
I still have ~40 minutes of Sunday left...

I can't remember if I have posted this Alabaster Nudi before. If I have, I guess I'll have to go get a new shot.

By the way, with as much diversity as there is in the Nudi world I'd bet you could fool people into thinking your catapillar was one. Just give a funky sounding Latin name and pass if off as the real thing.
 
I've posted most of my favorites. Here's a couple of ones I dug up.

Actually, it is. Not all Nudibranch, even though the name implies, have exposed gills. This is probably a Phyllidia Tula
Order: NUDIBRANCHIA

Suborder: DORIDINA

Family: Phyllidiidae
 
Here is mine... Chromodoris Risbecia

Sorry, don't know how to insert image :( Someone care to teach me? :)

First, your photo needs to be hosted on the web. One of the few free photo hosting sites that still allow the posting of individual photos is ScubaClicks.

Once you have it hosted, simply click on the IMG tag button (above in the SB Code section) and enter the URL to your photo.

This Underwater Photography forum is the only one on Scubaboard that allows photos to be posted. In all the others, an attachment is all that's allowed.

The board clock must be WAY off. It was well after midnight when I posted it!

Name it? How about Laketwineous Deevinia....after all, I did discover it! :D
