Whatβs the difference between a nudibranch and a sea slug?
Until I read a gorgeous new book on nudibranchs by Tim Nicholson I didnβt think there was a difference. Not so. All nudibranchs are sea slugs but not all sea slugs are nudibranchs.
Sea slug is the common name for any marine gastropod without a visible shell (slug-like rather than the snail-like) including sea hares & nudibranchs. A nudibranch is 1 type of gastropod among many.
