Placida dendritica
(Alder & Hancock, 1843)
» If you find this species has been misidentified, please let us know
Identification is verified by Richard Willan, Nudi Pixel expert
Comment from Richard Willan: This species supposedly has a very wide distribution in most temperate seas around the world, a distribution that could have been aided by accidental transportation on ship’s hulls. The taxonomy of all these species needs careful reassessment.
