Julie, Terry, Gary & Chris on this single shore entry dive of 98 minutes. Maximum depth 6 m, 21 C water temperature and 3 m viz.
A late afternoon/night dive in the Mooloolah River. The Pleurobranchus peronii emerged in great numbers when it got dark. Discodoris cebuensis is a new addition to the list for the river. Its ventral surface was yellow instead of the white we usually sight on the Sunshine Coast but this ventral colour is noted in the literature for this species.
