Nudibranchs and allies from Hazard Canyon Reef, San Luis Obispo Co., CA, 1999-2021

Below is a link to the third of four papers planned with my twin sons on nudibranchs and allies from Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo Counties, this one Hazard Canyon Reef, an intertidal site in Montana de Oro State Park well known to users of iNaturalist in the region. This paper follows the same general format as the previous two papers, but includes a table (on p. 546) listing species found by other observers (including @marisa_a, @arheyman, @noiselessowl, @anudibranchmom, @kueda, @dpom, and @craigahoover) at Hazard Canyon and in the subtidal nearby that we did not observe during our study.

In our 50 total trips to Hazard Canyon we recorded 5919 individuals of heterobranch sea slugs from 63 species, 57 of which were nudibranchs. In one additional trip, on 5 June 2023, I found another 60 individuals from 16 species, none of which were new additions to our overall list.
