Hypselodoris apolegma is a species of colorful sea slug or dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Chromodorididae.
Recent phylogenetic data confirm the validity of the species and suggest a sister species relationship between Hypselodoris apolegma and Hypselodoris bullockii.[2]
Distribution
This nudibranch is found in the tropical Western Pacific Ocean.[1]
