| Hopefully, that seahorse will forgive me for showing it to the world. But I have the impression that people in Nelson Bay care and make sure the seahorses don't fall victim to poachers. |
 |
| Polycera capensis, a new species for me but I don't think it is particularly rare. |

|
| Philinopsis lineolata with beautiful eyes under the head shield. I really tried hard to take a good picture. But somehow I could not figure out what was wrong. Interesting that they can be found during the day. |
 |
| Umbraculum umbraculum - it is totally new to me and comes as a surprise that this species can be found during the day. I found a few of them during the whole trip. |
