* Like so many locations on the underwater walls around
Isla San Pedro Nolasco, the above habitat is rich in invertebrate life.
Toward the top third are unidentified yellow Sponges, white Articulated
Calcerous algae, and to the left Crustose Coralline Algae. The bottom two
thirds of the image is dominated by a Persian Carpet Nudibranch (Tambja abdere,
) and Red Panamic Sea Fan (Gorgonia adamsi ?)
