THE ADVENTURES OF

A NUDIPHILE FEATURE AND PHOTOGRAPHY STEWART CLARKE

My fascination has meant that for the last 8 years I’ve been searching, documenting and photographing these slugs in and around the waters of the UAE as well as Oman, including any records of finds across the shores of Eastern Arabia. Thus far, this has resulted in recording over 330 different species, many of which are still undescribed. Amongst the Nudibranch community and scientists, the waters around the UAE are increasingly being recognised as having some rather unique species, especially those contained within the Arabian Gulf.
