Diagnosis | Characterized by its pattern of bright orange lines on a white or yellowish background. One line runs along each edge of the mantle, from the head, to just behind the gills where it folds under on each side to run forward midway between the mantle edge and the edge of the foot, which is bordered in orange. Gills are edged with range, so is the rhinophore. |
