Crimora edwardsi is a species of colourful sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Polyceridae. [2]
This species was described from Port Jackson, New South Wales, Australia.
The illustration of Angas appears to show a species of Crimora , not Nembrotha . O'Donoghue (1924) [3] did not replace the name Nembrotha with Angasiella because he did not believe this species belonged to Nembrotha. [4] It has been rediscovered in southern Queensland. [5]
George French Angas, also known as G.F.A., was an English explorer, naturalist, painter and poet who emigrated to Australia. His paintings are held in a number of important Australian public art collections. He was the eldest son of George Fife Angas, who was prominent in the early days of the colonisation of South Australia.
