Stiliger ornatus is characterized by its pale greenish-orange body. The cerata are of the some colour at the base,
followed by a broad black (in some specimen blue) band, followed by an orange cap, with the outmost tip black.
The rhinophores are black with a dorsal pale orange spot, fading into black towards the tip.
The original description of Stiliger ornatus is from the Red Sea, now there are records from the whole Indo-Pacific,
from Mozambique to Japan. The latter specimens differ slighty, they have pale bluish rhinophores.
