Colorful nudibranch

Members of the gastropod class, finger-size nudibranchs live fully exposed, their gills forming tufts on their backs. (Nudibranch means "naked gill," a feature that separates them from other sea slugs.).

绚丽的海蛞蝓
作为腹足类动物家族的成员，手指般大小的海蛞蝓过着完全暴露自己柔软身体的生活。（"nudibranch"意为“裸露的腮”，这是一个使他们区别于其他海洋软体动物的特征）
