Goniobranchus tritos is a species of colourful sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Chromodorididae. [2] [3]
Goniobranchus tritos has a cream coloured mantle with round black spots, each of which is outlined with a white line. There is a broad band of lilac-grey around the mantle and a narrow line of opaque white at the edge. The gills and rhinophores are grey with white highlights. [4] The body reaches a length of 50 mm.

Chromodoris is a genus of very colourful sea slugs or dorid nudibranchs, marine gastropod molluscs, and the type genus of in the family Chromodorididae. Within the genus Chromodoris, there are currently 101 classified species. Species within Chromodoris are commonly found in tropical and subtropical waters, living as members of reef communities and preying primarily on sponges. A molecular phylogeny of the family Chromodorididae resulted in this genus being restricted to a smaller number of species than formerly, most of which have longitudinal black lines on the mantle. Many former members of Chromodoris were transferred to Goniobranchus
