These violet sea slugs ─── the Edmundsella pedata; are a species of sea slug, in the family Flabellinidae. They're an aeolid nudibranch commonly referred to as the, "violet sea slugs"; despite the fact that there are sea slugs of other species which are in fact also violet. THIS sea slug appears to be one of the more notable violet slugs that often have a vibrant hue of violet. This species has a distinctive pink-purple coloration over its entire body. In the Mediterranean it can grow to about 20 mm long, while specimens in the Atlantic Ocean may grow to 50 mm. The cerata have white rings at the tip and occur in bunches which are joined together at their bases.

Went to the tide pools down in Dana Point the other day and found this little beauty right near the stairs. Always fun to find a nude at the beach...and take its photo. Spanish Shawl Nudibranch - Flabellinopsis iodinea February 7, 2020

Woke up at the crack of dawn to catch low tide in Baja last week. Worth it just to find this beautiful Spanish shawl/dancer nudibranch (Flabellina iodinea) hunting in the shallows. The cerata are orange with fuscia rhinophores, derived from a single carotenoid pigment called 'astaxanthin' + poisonous to predators! Subpar photo - doesn't do it justice. Beauty is boundless. 💕❤️💛💜 #scienceandsurf #tidepooling #nudibranch #tiffanybozic #spanishshawl #research #mollusc #flabellinidae (at Baja California, Mexico)
