Being Safe, but Not Too Safe: A Nudibranch Feeding on a Bryozoan-Associated Hydrozoan [PDF]
Diversity, 2023 Nudibranchs have a mostly carnivorous diet, and they prey on a wide variety of other animal taxa. Many species, mainly belonging to the Cladobranchia suborder, feed on cnidarians, including member of the class Hydrozoa.

Nudibranch Suborders Classification based on Densely Connected Convolutional Networks
JITCE (Journal of Information Technology and Computer Engineering)Nudibranchs, often called sea slugs, are a group of soft-bodied marine gastropod mollusks that shed their shells after their larval stage. With their body structure that is very similar between one suborder and another, sometimes it is hard to tell ...

Nudibranch Systematic Index [PDF]
, 2006 This is an index of my approximately 6,200 nudibranch reprints and books. I have indexed them only for information concerning systematics, taxonomy, nomenclature, & description of taxa. This list should allow you to quickly find information concerning the description, taxonomy, or systematics of almost any species of nudibranch.

Diterpenes from the Nudibranch Chromodoris luteorosea
Journal of Natural Products, 1990 Three new diterpenes, luteorosin [1], 12-epi-aplysillin {2], and 12-epi-12-deacetoxyaplysillin [3], have been isolated from the nudibranch mollusk Chromodoris luteorosea, along with the previously known macfarlandin A [4]. Compounds 1--4 display ichthyotoxic activity; hence, they might serve as defense allomones.

Demographic Models and Behavioral Assessments Uncover Distinct Species Histories in the Pseudocryptic Nudibranch Genus <i>Hermissenda</i>. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe reconstructed the speciation history of the recently split pseudocryptic nudibranch genus Hermissenda, finding divergence times in the Pleistocene (1.29–0.55 mya). Demographic modeling and behavioral experiments show no gene flow and assortative mating between sympatric species H. crassicornis (s.s.) and H.

2D to 3D: Exploring Variation of Niche Dimensionality Across Consumers in a Coastal Arctic Ecosystem and Implications on Interpretation. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe compared the traditional two‐dimensional (2D: δ13C and δ15N) isotopic niches with a three‐dimensional (3D: δ13C, δ15N, and δ34S) framework to evaluate changes in niche size and overlap. Overall, invertebrates and benthic‐associated species showed greater changes in niche size and reduced overlap using the 3D approach.

Social Predation by a Nudibranch Mollusc. [PDF]
Integr Org BiolAbstract Social predation is a common strategy used by predators to subdue and consume prey. Animals that use this strategy have many ways of finding each other, organizing behaviors and consuming prey. There is wide variation in the extent to which these behaviors are coordinated and the stability of individual roles.

New record of Hypselodoris infucata (Rüppell & Leuckart, 1830) (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Chromodorididae) in the Republic of Mauritius [PDF]
Check List, 2022 To date, 179 species belonging to the gastropod infraclass Euthyneura are known from Mauritius. We report for the first time from Mauritius the chromodorid nudibranch, Hypselodoris infucata (Rüppell & Leuckart, 1830), based on 47 sites ...

Can you find me? A new sponge-like nudibranch from the genus Jorunna Bergh, 1876 (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Discodorididae) [PDF]
Zoosystematics and Evolution, 2023 The nudibranch diversity of the western Indian Ocean is comparatively one of the least studied in the world. In this paper a sponge-like Discodoridae nudibranch Jorunna liviae sp. nov. is described.
