A single rose

  

We haven't heard of too many Hopkins' Rose Nudibranch (Ceratodoris rosacea) observations recently, so kudos to Sam for spotting this individual today (13 November 2024).  And thanks to Eric for the great photo!  If you come across this species, we'd love to hear about your sightings.

    So beautiful! Approximately how long is that specimen?

    Hi, Bill!

    Sounds like this nudibranch was ~2.5 cm (~1") long.

    :) Jackie

    Hey Jackie - I've observed only one Hopkins Rose this fall in mid-October at Marshall Gulch. Will send you details.
