Protaeolidiella atra | |
Protaeolidiella atra is a species of sea slug, an aeolid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Pleurolidiidae. [2]
This species was synonymised with Pleurolidia juliae by Rudman. [3] A careful study by Carmona et al. using DNA sequencing showed that these were really two sister species and that they were not members of the family Aeolidiidae. [4]
This species was described from Kasajima, Sagami Bay, Japan. It is also known from Korea. [4]
Protaeolidiella atra is an aeolid nudibranch with a burgundy to black coloured body and numerous cerata with white tips. [4] It is confused with Pleurolidia juliae in many works but can be distinguished by the lack of a dorsal white line on the body and more numerous, ungrouped cerata. [5]
