LOMANOTUS GENEI (Vérany, 1846) / Sea slug / Nudibranch / Sea life

Lomanotus genei is a species of a sea slug, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Lomanotidae. The colour of the body may be translucent white through to red, but a constant feature of this nudibranch is the yellow-tipped processes that form a wavy frill at the mantle edge. The rim of the rhinophore sheaths is modified to form similar yellow-tipped processes. Adults usually grow to 60mm, however, occasional specimens may reach 94mm in length.

Recorded on the west coast of Ireland. Thanks for watching.
