Description

This is the ultimate guide to sea slugs (nudibranchs and related) found in southern African waters!
This field guide is a comprehensive update of Terrence Gosliner’s Nudibranchs of Southern Africa. It covers all of the 868 species of sea slugs known from the region, as documented by a dedicated group of researchers and naturalists. The stunning beauty of sea slugs is captured in photographs and illustrations that identify the species, their known variants and their egg ribbons. The text gives details of size, distribution, external anatomy, identifying characteristics and natural history.

With 26 main authors and contributions from many other divers and photographers, this is the definitive guide to sea slugs for the southern African coastline, which includes everything from temperate, storm-lashed waters in the west, to warm, tropical coral reefs in the east.

Georgina Jones first dived at A-Frame on the western shores of False Bay in 1990. Despite having dived in many different places since then, she remains convinced that the most fascinating place to dive is right where she began! Georgina Jones is a member of SURG and a regular contributor.
