Baeolidia japonica is characterised by its papillate rhinophores, the blue foot and the blue markings on the inside of the cerata.
Bill Rudman writes: "One problem is what genus this species should be placed in. Baba described it as Baeolidia japonica, and it is has been transferred to Spurilla and Berghia at various times since then. If we follow Miller's (2001) recent review of the family, the most appropriate place seems to be back in Baeolidia."
