Dear Bill,  

Here's another nudibranch from my first dive trip since November. Thios photo of Phidiana hiltoni was taken during a three day Channel Islands trip [California]. It was shot at Santa Barbara Island, not used to seeing them there mainly see them at San Miguel Island.
Take care,
Bruce Wight

Thanks Bruce,
I've include a close-up because it shows the rhinopore shape of this species very clearly
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
