This beautiful nudibranch, about 35 mm long, feeds on the polyps of hydroids storing their stinging cells in its dorsal processes. These cells will serve in its defense. The brilliant colors may be a warning signal. When disturbed it swims by rapidly flexing its body laterally. It has a complex hermaphroditic reproductive system.
