Diverity and taxonomy of Goniobranchus nudibranchs

open access: yesDiverity and taxonomy of Goniobranchus nudibranchs
The genus Goniobranchus Pease, 1866 is a well-supported monophyletic clade that consists of 57 species and they have an ovoid body shape and have different mantle glands underneath their mantle. Certain Goniocranchus species are highly variable in their gross external morphology and this is notably observed in the red-reticulate Goniobranchus spp.

The chemical ecology of nudibranchs [PDF]

open access: possible, 2022
Nudibranchs are a group of colourful, shell-less marine molluscs that have evolved alternate methods of defence against predators, such as stealing stinging nematocysts cells from their coral prey or sequestering deterrent toxins from the marine sponges they feed upon.

Distribution of Defensive Metabolites in Nudibranch Molluscs

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2018
Many plants and animals store toxic or unpalatable compounds in tissues that are easily encountered by predators during attack. Defensive compounds can be produced de novo, or obtained from dietary sources and stored directly without selection or modification, or can be selectively sequestered or biotransformed.
