Nudi identified!!

After a few days of being unable to ID my little Nudibranch, I emailed Dave Behrens, author of Pacific Coast Nudibranchs... Here is his response:

 

"Hi Missy:

 

This is a huge find.  Wow.  Outstanding.

 

This is Sakuraeolis enosimensis, introduced from Japan some time ago.  I reported it?s occurrence in one of my very early papers.

 

Your observation is the only occurrence outside of SF Bay I am aware of.  I will cite you in the new edition."

 

 

Not to shabby eh?  heheh......   My little guy is famous!!!   I'm so proud

I'm so proud of you.

I can now say I knew you when...:-)
Will you still remember me when you're famous?

We can swap ink next time. :-) or the fluid of your choice.

Gag me with a spoon

Swapping fluids... really, this is a family web site! Just teasing you two.

Very interesting find. Congratulations to the two of you.

Of course the sad thing is that this is a range extension for yet another exotic species introduced to our waters, most likely through trans-Pacific shipping. Wonder what the ecological impacts might be.
