Body is translucent white with orange markings and lines on the head, back and sides of the body. The two orange lines on the back join at intervals, leaving opaque white areas similar to diamonds. Oral tentacles and rhinophores are orange with a whitish distal end. The rhinophores are smooth. Numerous cerata (up to 20 rows) cover all the back of the animal from just behind the rhinophores to the tail, the different groups are so packed they cannot be differentiated easily. The cerata are narrow in the base and thickened in their middle zone; the digestive gland inside is orange, the apex is white and there is usually a whitish subapical band.<\/p>\nBiology\n<\/strong>Very little is known about the biology of this species.
