Ranges from creamy white to a pale brown. Characterized by the black line bordering the very sinuous mantle edge, the black edge to the rhinophore pockets, black rhinophore clubs, and the black edging to the simple gills. The gills often rhythmically wave as the animal crawls along.
Assumed maximum length from Ref. 844. Depth range based on occurrence records: minimum depth (Ref. 99751) and maximum depth (Ref. 99750); to be replaced with a better reference. Found under a dead coral head at a depth of 15 m (Ref. 866).
Life cycle and mating behavior Γεννητική Ωρίμανση | Αναπαραγωγή | Γεννοβολία | Eggs | Γονιμότητα | Larvae
Members of the order Nudibranchia are simultaneous hermaphrodites. Mating behavior: Both individuals darts their penis toward each other to induce one to act as a male and the other as the female. The victorious one to penetrate the body wall is the dominant male. Life cycle: Eggs are deposited on a substratum where they develop and hatch into (planktonic) vestigial veliger larval stage and further grow as adults.
