A large, beautiful sea butterfly, technically a pseudothecosome Pteropod, Corolla species. I call them Toyota Corollas although they are certainly more beautiful than the car. These creatures are planktonic, pelagic mollusks, meaning unlike clams living happily in the mud, these creatures spend their entire lives swimming with the plankton. They are filter feeders capturing small prey and organic debris with a mucus net. Pteropod means winged foot, and they use their wing like foot to propel themselves through the water. These Images are from a recent night drift dives off Palm Beach, Florida #uwmacro #uw #underwaterphotography #uwpics #uwlife #uwphoto #blackwaterdiving #natureflorida #sfups #uwpics #tinywildthings #palmbeach #pteropod #plankton #zooplankton #naturefl #pteropods #seabutterfly #invertebrate #invertebrates #mollusk #mollusca #pseudothecosome
The Amazing Clanculus puniceus common name the Strawberry top snail.
•
The Trochidae are a large family - a few hundred mostly small species. With a worldwide spread. Most are herbivorous. Although some forage on sponges. The inside is pearly. The mother-of-pearl is traded.
•
This species is sturdy, rounded-cone-shaped. The Clanculus puniceus is very similar to the Clanculus pharaonius. But has 4 spirals, with alternately 2-3 red papillae and a black one.
•
This species is very sensitive to UV light exposure. And will fade in a short time.
•
This species occurs in the Indian Ocean off Madagascar, the Mascarene Basin, Mozambique , Kwazulu-Natal (South Africa) and Tanzania.
•
18mm.
From Tulear reef, Madagascar.
They belong to the Trochidae family.

#ExploretheShore Janthina janthina, the violet sea snail or common violet snail creates a raft of bubbles to keep afloat on ocean currents.
:
During strong winds and swell like we had last week here in Bermuda, they get washed ashore along with numerous other unlucky critters such as Portuguese Man o’ War, Velella velella, baby flying fish and the occasional super rare blue dragon.

Two Sea Butterflies(Thecosome Pteropods) having a “meeting” about replicating the species. It seems miraculous that these tiny (3mm), not so common, swimming mollusks can find each other in their vast three dimensional ocean habitat. These creatures are holoplanktonic mollusks, meaning unlike clams living happily in the mud, these creatures spend their entire lives swimming with the plankton. They gather organic material and plankton with a mucus net or web. Inside the shell you can see the liver and internal organs. Pteropod means winged foot, and they use their foot like wings to propel themselves through the water.
