Info

Goniobranchus pseudodecorus Yonow, 2018

Goniobranchus pseudodecorus has a translucent white or pale orange mantle with longitudinal, irregular opaque white lines and striations. Between these lines are small round magenta spots. There is an opaque white area towards the edge of the mantle which is more extensive at the head and behind the gill.

At the edge of the mantle there is an orange band with regularly spaced white breaks or spots. The rhinophores and gill leaflets are translucent with some orange and some white markings.

"pseudodecorus" means simialr to Goniobranchus decorus.
