The sea slug Chromodoris geometrica is a smaller chromodorid, 3 cm
specimens are large. It has a fairly large anterior mantle skirt which waves
up and down as the animal crawls along and is
purple on its underside.
Pretty similar is
Chromodoris hintuanensis which differs by the colour of the rhinophores
and gills and the presence of a few small white rounded nodules on the mantle,
each surrounded by a ring of deep magenta, purple or black. The gills and rhinophores
are a translucent reddish purple colour edged with a dark line of the same colour.
