Sea Slug Census 2018: Report available

The recent Sea Slug Census was a success, in more ways than one. 

32 species were identified, many wonderful images shared, and people were involved from numerous communities along our coast.

The stand out discovery is the first-ever record of one particular tropical species so far south.

Evidence of such 'range-extension' highlights the important contributions citizen science can make by monitoring and mapping biodiversity.
