Chromodoris verrieri (Crosse, 1875)

Chromodoris verrieri bears a superficial resemblance to C. preciosa, but the rhinophores and gills are white. We have seen these at Enewetak and Kwajalein Atolls, under dead coral rocks on shallow interisland reefs at depths of 2 to 5 meters. They are small, usually less than 10mm.

A pair nestled together.
