Pikachu Longhorn Dorid
Thecacera pacifica
This brightly colored nudibranch lives on temperate rocky reefs and docks, especially where its bryozoan prey grows. It crawls slowly over submerged surfaces, scraping food with a radula. Its distinctive yellow, black, and white markings give it the nickname Pikachu sea slug, while its exposed gills and hornlike rhinophores create its unusual silhouette.
