Glossodoris cincta (Bergh, 1888)

Glossodoris cincta is uncommon in the Marshalls, but we have found specimens at Kwajalein, Enewetak, and Rongelap Atolls. Usually they are under dead coral rocks on lagoon pinnacles at depths of 10 to 15 meters, but occasionally can be seen on lagoon interisland reefs or on the upper flat portion of the atoll's seaward slope. Specimens we've seen measure up to about 40mm in length.
