Dendrodoris krebsii is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Dendrodorididae.

Taxonomy

It was previously considered a subspecies of Doriopsilla areolata Bergh, 1880 by Valdés & Ortea (1997), [2] but Valdés & Hamann (2008) [3] confirmed that it is a distinct species. [1]

Distribution

Distribution of Doriopsilla nigrolineata includes Panama and Honduras. [1]

Description

The shape of the body is oval to elongate. [1] Dorsum is rigid and covered with rounded tubercles. [1] Background color is translucent white to orange, with a series of irregular black lines over the entire dorsum. [1] Bases of tubercles are densely spotted with white. [1] Rhinophores and gill are yellow. [1] The maximum recorded body length is 30 mm. [4] [1]

Ecology

Minimum recorded depth is 3 m. [4] Maximum recorded depth is 12 m. [4] It was found in the depth of 3–6 m of water in Panama. [1]
