This green polyclad lives upon Codium
magnum, a green alga (Family: Chlorophyceae) which is seasonal
and can grow up to 20 feet long as described from Bahia de San Quintine,
Baja California, Mexico. The flatworm is well camouflaged in his natural
habitat. Interestingly,
Codium magnum is also habitat for nudibranches
of the genera Elysia
and Stiliger. |
