Flabellina goddardi is a species of sea slug, an aolid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Flabellinidae.[1][2][3][4][5] This species was recently discovered by Terry Gosliner, and named for his friend, Jeff Goddard. It was found while searching for another species in Carpinteria State Beach in Santa Barbara, California.[6]
Description
The body is translucent white, with mature specimens being approximately 33 mm long. It has smooth rhinophores, with orange-tipped, subapical red bands on the cerata.[6]
It produces eggs in a long, convoluted ribbon,[1] which hatch into planktotrophic veliger larvae.[6]
Distribution
Flabellina goddardi is so far recorded only from the intertidal zone of Carpinteria State Beach.[6]
