"With the exception of some species that have direct development, most opisthobranchs are very variable in pattern and also in colour so it takes a while to get used to looking and knowing the fact that just because one appears a bit different it might be a new species. Very few nudibranchs , even of the same species are exactly the same pattern, each is an individual as are most things in nature. "
