Analogium sp. 01 is characterized by its translucent orange or greenish colour and yellow/orange longitudinal ridges, and as in all species of Analogium the gills arranged in a transverse line. Some authors see the genus Analogium as a synonym of Gymnodoris, I will keep it seperate for now.
The family Gymnodorididae is an interesting family of carnivorous nudibranchs which feed on other sea slugs.
many more pictures of Analogium sp. are at NUDIPIXEL
It was posted at these websites before as Analogium sp. A Genus: Risbec, 1928.
For some genera, such as Trinchesia is the alphabet almost through. I had to change the distinguishing alphabetic character into a number. I have chosen 2-digit numbers, even if '01' looks a little bit stupid, and now is only the genus italic written.
