a Snow crab carapace on the beach. As the Crab season has not opened yet, i suspect this is a natural death.

sophiamaddenDescripción
Common Name: Red-Gilled Nudibranch
Scientific Name: Flabellina pellucida
Location found: Pump House Beach, About 20 feel below sea level
Habitat type: Found on algae and rocks from the low tide line and deeper. They range from the arctic to Cape Cod.
Physical description: They have many branchiae on their backs that have reddish to brown cores and are tipped with white. Their bodies are opaque to translucent white or yellow. They can be over 1 inch long.
Fun fact: They are often confused with Salmon-Gilled Nudibranchs but the Red-Gilled Nudibranch have deeper colored gills and are less common in Nahant, MA, as me and my classmates have found.

Smaller nudibranchs in photo. Identification provided by Dr. Alan Kuzirian of the Marine Biological Laboratory. Collected in the head tanks on the roof of the MBL Lillie Building where seawater is pumped from Great harbor. Egg masses laid by Barnacle nudibranch.

dremsenDescripción
Another nudibranch found in the series of head tanks atop the Lillie Building. This species is significant because Dr. Alan Kuzirian, who identified these specimens, indicates he hasn't seen this species here since 1972. This warrants better photos which I will try to acquire.
The head tanks receive water from the pump dock directly across the street. They get raw water and always have local species growing within.

Fun observation of a few individuals on a crab carapace. I'm not 100% certain on the species, these were quite small. Please chime in if you have different thoughts on species.

1 of 2 found in rich shell drift by the tent camping area at Flamingo (Florida Bay), at the end of the Everglades National Park Road. I have never seen rupicola during multiple visits at this site until that day. According to Bruce Neville, this could be the 1st record from S. Florida (or at least the 1st such record that he or I are aware of). Generally the distribution of this species had previously appeared to be discontinuous from NE Florida to Collier or Lee County, SW Florida. Shell ca. 16.5mm

Same species as previous Staurozoan? “Pom poms” look different but wondering if this is perhaps an immature individual.

A Blotched Swimming Crab in Potter Pond. This was a first for me in RI. From what I've read it typically only ranges to New Jersey. It appears to be an immature female.

Large aggregations in low intertidal. There were very few egg masses, and time of year seemed wrong for egg laying. Originally posted on the legendary sea slug forum: http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/22650.

Found completely by chance while swimming at the beach near the Graduate School of Oceanography.
This specimen was on a rock less than a couple kg in weight. I just happened to notice it. I've collected from the nearby rocks many times and never seen one, and it's been several years since I've seen this species at any site in Rhode Island. The only site I used to find them at was under Succotash Bridge in Matunuck (at least a few years ago), so this was quite a surprise.

A Mantis Shrimp at the Ninigret tidal flats. At the time I assumed this was just a very small Squilla empusa, but now I think this is actually Nannosquilla grayi.
