Felimare sechurana is a species of sea slug or dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Chromodorididae. [2]
This species was described from a holotype collected at Isla Foca ( 5°12′13.8″S81°12′38.0″W / 5.203833°S 81.210556°W ), Piura, Peru on 25 March 2013 (length 18 mm (0.71 in) preserved) and four paratypes with the largest measuring 40 mm (1.6 in) from the same locality. [1]
This species was previously identified as Felimare ghiselini, a synonym of Felimare californiensis . It is dark blue in colour densely covered with orange spots on the mantle and foot and with pale blue-white spots scattered between the orange spots or merging at the mantle and foot edges. It reaches 64 mm (2.5 in) in length. [1] [3]
Felimare picta is a species of colourful sea slug or dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Chromodorididae. Atlantic Ocean species of Hypselodoris were all transferred to Felimare following a DNA phylogeny.
Hypselodoris is a genus of colourful sea slugs or dorid nudibranchs, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Chromodorididae. Modern usage follows a more restricted view of which species belong in this genus so there are numerous genus transfers.
