This nudibranch is translucent white with fine brown spotting on the top and sides of the body and clear patches around the bases of the cerata. The cerata have a blue iridescence and the tubercles have internal blue spots. There is always a crescent-shaped red spot on the inner base of the peduncle at the insertion of cerata into the body.

The maximum recorded body length is 6 mm. [3]
Minimum recorded depth is 10 m. [3] Maximum recorded depth is 19 m. [3]
