Sighting evidence at Looc Bay, Romblon

iNaturalist · HTTP://CREATIVECOMMONS.ORG/LICENSES/BY/4.0/

Looc Bay hosts an exceptional diversity of Chromodoris nudibranchs including C. annae, C. magnifica, and C. willani, each species displaying vivid blue, white, and orange patterns that advertise their chemical defenses. These opisthobranch molluscs feed selectively on specific sponge species and are reliable indicators of healthy reef chemistry. The bay's calm conditions and shallow profile make it ideal for the extended bottom times required for thorough nudibranch surveys.

How is this calculated?

Sighting evidence is compiled from iNaturalist observation records within a set proximity radius, filtered for quality-grade observations. “Last confirmed” is the date of the most recent research-grade record. Record count covers a rolling 24-month window. Confidence reflects record count, recency, and consistency of seasonal signal.
