Field Notes

Description:

Also called Funeral Jorunna and Snoopy Nudibranch. This nudibranch looks like melted candle with smoke stains on it -- probably why it has one of its unfortunate monickers.

Habitat:

Coral and rocky reefs, all over the Indo-Pacific.

Notes:

This critter was photographed at a depth of about 10m.
