Spalding's Dorid

Doriopsilla spaldingi

Classification

Doriopsilla is a genus of sea slugs, dorid nudibranchs, shell-less marine gastropod molluscs in the family Dendrodorididae. Description Doriopsilla and Dendrodoris are genera which have frequently been confused, partly because both lack a radula. They feed by dissolving their sponge food externally, using enzymes, and then ingesting sponge cells without the sponge skeleton.
