Nudibranch Research

Our new marine science intern Luna Benítez arrived have been a week and we are busy with trainning and research. She will be posting a weekly blog for you, so please follow us!

The last days have been very interesting for our nudibranch projects, more 3 species have been additioned to our list including the beautiful Bornella stellifer and the very rare Sakuraeolis kirembosa, seeing only in Tanzania before. Kirembosa means beautiful in Swahili. This nudi has very long oral tentacles and everytime it moves it touch the substrate with it as it wants to feel it. 
Happy days and dives!
