The word « nudibranch » comes from the Latin nudus, naked, and the Greek brankhia, gills.
Among this group can be found the most colorful creatures on earth.
Nudibranchs are often casually called « sea slugs« , a non-scientific term. This has led some people to assume that every sea slug must be a nudibranch. They live at virtually all depths of salt water, but reach their greatest size and variation in warm, shallow waters.
The body forms of nudibranchs vary enormously and most species have venomous appendages on their sides.
They vary in adult size from 20 to 600 millimetres (0.79 to 24 in).
