Platydoris cf. formosa is characterised by large red patches and
brownish-green rhinophores.
"cf." is an abbreviation from a Latin word (confer) and means 'refer to' or 'compare with', here it means it
could possibly be Platydoris formosa or perhaps something closely related, or at least similar in
appearance. Platydoris cf. formosa differs from Platydoris formosa by its brown rhinophores,
whilst Platydoris formosa has bright red ones.
Very similar is
Platydoris cruenta which differs by its hair-like brown lines.
