Photo Of The Week – Nudibranch, Milne BAY, PNG

This absolutely stunning nudibranch Chromodoris annae was one of the photographic highlights of our trip last year to Milne Bay, PNG.

This little guy is often found on open rock walls and reef faces where it feeds on aplysilid sponges. This photo was taken on a section of deep exposed reef at about 20m.

A quick look around the Web will show that this is one of the most photgraphed of the tropical nudibranchs. Have a look at SeaSlug.info for more info.

Until the next post, take care out there and keep diving ( if that’s what you do! ) …Robert 🙂
