Out for a stroll
Small white sea cucumbers can be hard to identify. This one might be a Stiff-footed Sea Cucumber (Eupentacta quinquesemita). Photographed in northern Sonoma County earlier this month.

I have never seen a white one before. It's beautiful.
Hi, Carol! Yes! There are several species of white cucumbers in our area, but they're generally small, and they're often hidden under algae or rocks. They're hard to tell apart unless you can get a close-up view of the ossicles.
