3-5 mm long, under a rock in serpentine chaparral. There were also ants under the rock that I idiotically didn't photograph. They were more like 8mm long and glossy (not argentines, not Prenelops, didn't really look like Camponotus, but I'm terrible with ants). Note to self: in the future. photograph any ants you see with pseudoscorpions.

All handheld shots with the Laowa 5x.

What are the modified second pair of legs called and what is their function? They're not the gonopods, they're back on segment 8 (or is it 7?).

I believe I encountered these two after mating as they were facing each other and more tightly coiled before I was able to get my camera set up. The male was touching the female with its antennae and first pair of legs, and maybe the weird second legs, but the gonopods seemed to be folded back.

The Dendronotus are all over the harbors for the last couple days. Does D. rufus have multiple color variations? Some appear typical D. rufus, others have pink/maroon bodies w/ white dorsal stripe, and some have maroon bodies covered with white spots. I'm posting photos of several variations for comparison.

This is for the scale wiorm (?) crawling on the back of this Dirona picta nudibranch. It seemed like the nudibranch was in distress, or at least uncormfortable, as it was hanging off its foot and swaying in the current. Snapped a picture and checked it back at ome and noticed the hitchhiker crawling on its back

Undescribed species, 22 mm long. I spotted this specimen on its flat, coiled egg mass (also see 2nd image) on a pebble grabbed with gray mud from 186 m depth off Cape Alava, WA while on a cruise of the NOAA Ship McArthur II in June 2004. The translucent dorsum was finely scabrous to the touch. The 4th image is an SEM, made by Sandra Millen, of some of its radular teeth. Sandra confirmed this as an undescribed species and last I heard had been well along in describing it. The first three images were scanned from prints from 35 mm film.

Originalmente lo subí como Hypselodoris lapizlazuli..pero resulta que ese nombre ya estaba desactualizado entonces lo volví a poner. Tenía aproximadamente 3cm de largo y se encontraba desplazándose en un sustrato rocoso a 7m de profundidad

There are two in the photo. The end of the thinner one was the width of only a few strands of hair. It was moving and probing the board at the time the photo was taken. The smaller one looked a little like a moving udon noodle. Photo is on a 2x6” board laid out by workmen in the area. A third one of these is partially visible in the second photo, bottom left, end stretched far out.
