A couple new nudibranchs (for me)

Post by Scubie Doo »

While diving the San Juan Island this Sunday I found a couple new nudibranch for me. Can someone help with an ID?

This one was tiny, I mean really tiny :-) Not the best pic, but hopefully someone can help with an ID.

Okay, Penders actually found this Nudibranch. I think it is a Seal Doto, but not sure.

The second one is Doto Kia.
I am going out on a limb without my book on the first one but I'll go with Diaphodoris lirulatocauda A huge name for a nudie that never gets bigger than 6mm
