I'm a ride or die for nudibranchs, for sea slugs, and all things slimy.

Cyerce Nigricans
Free for personal use; repost with credits
Saw a video of one of these little creatures the other day and couldn’t resist attempting a little animation project.
It could be improved; I probably should have drawn more frames to make the motion smoother, but I think I’m satisfied for now.
And then I took creative liberties and did a blue version just because.

SEA SLUGSSSSSS <333333333333
Listen to me, boy. You will hear about sea slugs. You will enjoy sea slugs
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/31cb9d151df7b82e73b16fc5988d416a/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-aa/s540x810/476bc4ff671ab9f8d4adde47bc9b08a62339cea5.jpg)
Costasiella kuroshimae / leaf sheep. Discovered off the coast of Japanese island Kuroshima in 1993, they can indirectly perform photosynthesis by absorbing chloroplasts from algae
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/d2f6538debe817705073e4fd7434af7c/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-06/s540x810/20ca827cc51e165b009654732103c6a29000bbe2.jpg)
Cyerce nigricans. The cerata can be easily cast when disturbed. They can also swim by powerfully flapping said cerata when strongly stimulated. I think they look like butterfly wings!
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/faf2d6f62b92d39e2650f51ff6fbbdef/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-ac/s540x810/3fff563e03265765757beb860b636623cda0494d.jpg)
Jorunna parva / sea bunny. They are covered in papillae, which are fleshy protuberances used for sensory functions. It looks like fur!
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/29e511e951174999e4fbda4ec2933295/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-cd/s540x810/077f4b1666354f5a87d5a52f82463708e0cc21e5.jpg)
Glaucus atlanticus / blue glaucus. They are rarely seen, except during periods of on-shore winds which brings them and their prey into coastal waters. They are the most dangerous sea slug to handle, able to give humans a very painful and potentially dangerous sting
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/b2dd1eb85675bf6c04e1f49c02ceb6c7/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-48/s540x810/107d5536165d4801dcff9b811d61cc07f5f1aa6a.jpg)
Chromodoris lochi / loch's chromodoris. They are spongivores, and prefer being on the underside of overhangs on rocky reefs. Their distribution is widespread in the Indo-Pacific. Everyone I show sea slugs to seems to love this little guy
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/0cb7de95b6d0096f3d9d455245bd46ce/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-e5/s540x810/983834ac41a7214aff3e1f6eb34db568dd93f67c.jpg)
Dirona albolineata / white-lined dirona. A translucent predator that often eats bryozoans and small snails. They generally reside on rocks and sometimes mud in the intertidal. Pretty little things, they remind me of shards of glass
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/43a4a23cfcc0bdddbb0bf4c7afeee5eb/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-51/s540x810/598b1c85100b1f2cfacb924ff917d9a4de0f3782.jpg)
Phidiana hiltoni / Hilton's Aeolid. They are known for being quite aggressive, often biting and fighting other aeolids, which is so real of them. They always reminded me of lit matches
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/f2c41be37af062fbeba59a80a55f9dd7/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-25/s540x810/33916729d5f4a23f149db8bb23eca17844761399.jpg)
Acanthodoris lutea / orange-peel doris. Its bright aposamatic colouration is a warning to predators of its distasteful toxicity. They also notably smell of sandalwood! You don't understand. I NEED to hold one
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/2b41d5f042fc38964f1df7517baef80c/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-bc/s540x810/1c5a3a2d1a14d5587bd7db9240d7401f345b3198.jpg)
Nembrotha kubaryana / dusky nembrotha. They use the toxins in their prey ascidians to defend themselves against predators. The toxins are stored in their tissues then released in a slimy defensive mucus when alarmed. Nembrotha kubaryana are well-known for their neon appearance
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/d27c4318d8fa329e15a72543e92fbf63/d90e6cbeaf6aaafc-88/s540x810/ba4bcbd749fae5096e08cec7ae572c57b49e9cde.jpg)
Phyllodesmium poindimiei / Spun Of Light. It's primarily nocturnal and can cast its cerata for protection. Anyway, can we all agree that Spun Of Light is the most awesome name for a sea slug ever? I mean, look at it. That's a sea slug spun of light if I've ever seen one
Conclusion: sea slugs are the creatures ever
#hell. fucking. yes#sea slug#sea slugs#nudibranch#cyerce nigricans#glaucus atlanticus#blue glaucus#chromodoris lochi#dirona albolineata#hilton's aeolid#YIPEEE#CREACHURS#BABIES EVEN#ILOVE THEM#SO MICH#AAAAAAAAAAA#the lord has place Litol Creachurs in the sea….#for us to marvel at….#too bad they are Unholdable….#traggy’s shit

Hello! Love your blog. It's wonderful and is sure to make many people's days. Sea slug request: Cyerce Nigricans or Costasiella Kuroshimae.
🌊Latin name: Costasiella Kuroshimae
🌊Common name: Leaf slug, Leaf sheep, Solar-powered sea slug
🌊Family: Costasiellidae
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/dcab3d1789e6776cb5ecf3fcfbbc6ebd/2fc19fc62f30a020-9e/s540x810/03ef2762f4be2537305e1a7c3b1223c755931bcf.jpg)
🌐Near Japan, Indonesia, and the Philippines, leaf sheep can be found underwater, where light is available. Found next to coral reefs.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/7eda65a1ebd1bdd9b803bc0eb1a20fb8/2fc19fc62f30a020-fa/s540x810/2dbda07241d586d9994eb7f801cda29159dd7c8d.jpg)
🦠They live and feed on Avrainvillea - a fuzy algea. They suck on the algea, getting the chloroplasts out and keep them in the ceratas for 10 days. This process is called kleptoplasty. It also means they can do photosyntesis - they’re one of the only sea creatures that can photosynthesize. If needed, it allows them to suppliment their diet in case of need.

Guys guys guys I need help with names while I work on an art collab
I'm making my KinitoPET sona and he's gonna be a Leaf Sheep (Costasiella kuroshimae)
I wanted to go for a Black and Gold Sapsucking Slug (Cyerce nigricans) because I wanted to name him Nox (because it's in my list of names cuz I like to collect silly names for me), but unfortunately it kept looking awfully weird so I discarded it and went back to the original Leaf Sheep plan
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/1f8914be22046127b362590e54716519/a1cc04ff658d54f1-41/s540x810/71f18067bdb8609f38e92a8686148c244adf172a.jpg)
I need a name for the goober that I could also easily use for myself (because this is going to be a self insert/sona) so go silly fr fr I'm curious

Black-and-gold sapsucking slug (Cyerce nigricans).
This sea slug secretes an unappetizing mucus to dissuade predators. When threatened, it can drop its colorful cerata, or leaf-like outgrowths, to create a distraction. This species is found in the western Indian and Pacific Oceans, where it dwells on coral or rocky reefs and snacks on algae.

[image description: The two panel “they’re the same picture” meme, edited to have different pictures. In the first panel, Pam is holding two blank white rhombuses, and you can’t see her face. In the left rhombus, renders of Kirby, Meta Knight, Galacta Knight, and Morpho Knight are edited on, and in the right rhombus, the sea slug species Coryphella pedata, Glaucus atlanticus, Chromodoris bullocki, and Cyerce nigricans are edited on. At the bottom is yellow text saying “Corporate wants you to find the difference between these two pictures.” In the second panel, Pam is staring at the screen. At the bottom is yellow text saying “They’re the same picture.” End description]
