Julie, Terry, Gary & David on this single shore entry dive of 127 minutes. Maximum depth 6.9 m, 20 C water temperature and 5 m viz.
An unremarkable dive with just the usual suspects sighted. We have seen specimens of the Flabellina sp. 5 a number of times previously but have been including them with Flabellina angelvaldesi. However we have now decided to separate it until such time as we can confirm.
