Ancula evelinae is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae .
This species was first described from Beaufort, North Carolina.
This goniodorid nudibranch is translucent white in colour with black patches. It has only two, curved, extra-branchial processes. [1]
Ancula evelinae probably feeds on Entoprocta which often grow on hydroids, bryozoa and other living substrata.
Okenia is a genus of colorful sea slugs, specifically of dorid nudibranchs, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Goniodorididae.
Cadlina is a genus of sea slugs, dorid nudibranchs, shell-less marine gastropod mollusks historically classified in the family Chromodorididae. Recent research by R.F. Johnson in 2011 has shown that Cadlina does not belong to the family Chromodorididae. She has therefore brought back the name Cadlinidae from synonymy with Chromodorididae. The family Cadlinidae also includes the genus AldisaBergh, 1878.
Nembrotha purpureolineata is a species of colourful sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Polyceridae. Nembrotha rutilans, classified as a separate species until 2008, has now been reclassified as Nembrotha purpureolineata.
