This species was described from Devon, England. It has been reported from the NE Atlantic from Norway south to Portugal and in the Mediterranean Sea. Records from Brazil and Florida probably represent a different species. [3] [4]
The typical size of this species is 10–15 mm and the maximum recorded length is 26 mm. [5]
Found from the intertidal zone to 270 m. [5] Trinchesia caerulea feeds on hydroids of the genus Sertularella . [3]

Trinchesia is a genus of sea slugs, aeolid nudibranchs, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Trinchesiidae. All species were transferred to Tenellia as a result of a DNA phylogeny study in 2016. The genus was dismembered and broken into several smaller genera in 2017 with further DNA evidence and a re-interpretation of genus and family characteristics.
