Mexichromis albofimbria is a species of sea slug or dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Chromodorididae. [2]
This nudibranch is known from New Caledonia. [2]
Mexichromis albofimbria has a pale-pink body, a thin white-lined mantle and pale orange gills and rhinophores. It is almost identical to Thorunna punicea and very similar to members of the Hypselodoris bullocki group. [2]
This species can reach a total length of at least 11 mm, [2] and like all Chromodorids, feeds on sponges.
