Nudibranchs of Eastern Canada and New England
Nudibranchs are soft-bodied, shell-less marine gastropods (snails). Their equivalent on land are slugs. The comparison ends there because nudibranchs are marvelously colorful. The combinations of color and fanciful patterns make them seem like creatures painted by an artist. They are a favorite of underwater photographers because they are generally slow, colorful, and with poor or no vision, making them wonderful subjects to focus upon.
