I'm hoping someone might be able to identify this. It stood about 8 inches high off a sandy bottom at about 50 feet.
I thought it was an odd looking soft coral when I took the photo (I'd dived in Turkey a fair bit and not come across one before)
However, talking about it with our dive guide when back on the boat, he said he thought it might have been a clutch of eggs, but didn't know the creature that might have laid them.
On closer inspection on the close-up. It does look like it is made up of a group of 'pouches' with little 'eggs' within them. Is the dive guide correct?
Many thanks in anticipation.
