Nembrotha mullineri Gosliner & Behrens, 1997
60mm

Many specimens were found at both coral reef and muck sites.

This nudibranch eats a couple kinds of stalked tunicates, including this green Oxycorynia fascicularis.

It also eats this Sycozoa tunicate.

The next two shots show young specimens that still retain some orange spots, which seems to tie them to what appear to be orange spotted juveniles.

These would appear to be juvenile Nembrotha mullineri.

More were found during the 2016 trip, mostly young ones at Red Palm.

More from 2017 and 2018. The next especially dark one was paired up with the mostly yellow one in the following photo.

Some younger ones still bearing orange spots.

This is probably a very young one, although it also has some similarity to the one we are calling Nembrotha sp. a465.
