Notobryon clavigerum is a species of sea slug, a nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Scyllaeidae. [1]
The rhinophoral sheaths of Notobryon clavigerum have a crest which is oriented longitudinally running along the posterior margin and the anterior margin. It terminates distally in a wavy margin. With the exception of the tip, the edges of the dorsolateral lobes are smooth, stand up recurved, and display claw-like papillae that are small and in a row. There are three of these on the posterior and five on the anterior. [2]
This species is found in the Western Pacific Ocean such as in the waters of Japan. [3]
The notum is the dorsal portion of an insect's thoracic segment, or the dorsal surface of the body of nudibranch gastropods. The word "notum" is always applied to dorsal structures; in other words structures that are part of the back of an animal, as opposed to being part of the animal's ventral surface, or underside.
