Information
Comment from expert, Richard Willan: This aeolid nudibranch is characterised by the slightly inflated cerata that resemble swollen spindles, by the translucent white body with opaque white tips to the rhinophores, oral tentacles and cerata, and by the irregular orange-red blotches on the head and back. Externally, Eubranchus linensis is very similar to Eubranchus farrani.
