Tritonia hamnerorum from Florida, USA

June 12, 2003
From: Paul Osmond


Last weekend [June 2003] we found over 50 animals of Tritonia hamnerorum on several sea fans on a reef in Islamorada, Florida - just south of Key Largo.

Several Sea Fans on the site showed evidence of heavy damage from either these nudibranchs or Flamingo Tongues which were also seen in the area.

Every other sea fan had several specimans on, although not the numbers reported by others - maximum of 8 on a single fan.
