This guy was found in a pile of soil at the Friends of Sausal Creek nursery in Joaquin Miller Park that was delivered a few weeks ago (from American Soil in Richmond). I am unsure of the original soil source location.

This is unlike anything i've seen. A person in my gruop thought it might be a sea hare egg case. It was slimy-smooth, pliable and attached to the rock. There were sea hares nearby.

There were many of these sea hares on the beach at low tide. Any help with the species is appreciated.
