This little nudi was about .5" or so. I think the color pattern is really cool. From Lembeh Jan 2014

The biggest Nudi I've ever seen, a Florida Regal Sea Goddess, upwards of 2". Off Ft. Lauderdale Beach

Here's one I took on Sunday ... flabellina triophina ... about an inch or so in length.

from this angle it looks like a cross between a hog and a long horn cow. There a lot of them around. I wonder if it's their breeding season.

A few nudis from my Lembeh trip at the end of July / beginning of August

Some large Glossodoris around





Plenty of other Chromodris sp. but I love this C. kunei



Not sure if this Tambja gabrielea had two different length rhinophores or one was withdrawn



Noumea varians



Phyllodesmium rudmani



Plenty of Nebrotha cristata and kubaryana around but I had never seen this N. guttata before



It was less than a cm and the photo is cropped, to be honest I could barely see it without the guide pointing it out (night dive)

Couple of my favourite Flabellina shots





This one I still have to ID



and this was the strangest one (well it is lembeh) (? Kaloplocamus acutus) …. about 5mm in length (cropped shot)

We do not have lots of nudis in North Carolina but I keep looking for them. Found the following on the Stone. A sunken tugboat in 60 ft of water off Wilmington, NC. At first I thought it was our common regal sea goddess but note the whlte spots. These were quite small. An inch max.

Felimare califoriensis. They hadn't been seen on the coast of California for 35 years until earlier this year. I found this tiny 1/4" guy last week.

Any reason they turned up now, water temperatures?
