Archidoris montereyensis in California

September 29, 2001
From: Bruce Wight


Hi guys,
I had a great 4 day trip out to Santa Barbara Island, California last week and saw a lot of Archidoris montereyensis with almost linear grouping of black markings running along the top of the dorsal side, usually the black is spattered at random. Thought you might like to see a couple of shots of a couple of the animals. They were all juveniles for they were less 3 cm in length. I also threw in a shot of a gorgeous Phidiana hiltoni that crossed my path and a pair of romantic Anisodoris nobilis all found at the same reef in about 40 feet of water. If you ever go to 7 1/2 fathoms reef on Santa Barbara Island take your macro set up with you.
Take care,
Bruce Wight
