Chromodoris kuniei is most often found crawling exposed during the day. It is rare at Kwajalein. The only specimens we have found have been on the oceanside slope at depths of about 15 meters and deeper. In 1990 we found a dozen or so over the span of a few months. Then they disappeared until two specimens were observed in 2005. It would appear that Kwajalein might get a small group of colonists when the conditions are right, but the species may not live here all the time. Chromodoris kuniei is one of a few species that waves its mantle skirt as it crawls along. The still photo captures the nudibranch lifting its skirt. The DVD shows it waving it up and down.
