Biologists find these animals after a fisherman donated specimens from the Gulf of Tarpon Springs to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and Wildlife Research Institute in St. Petersburg in 2009.
Sea slug 'nudibranch' have gills and have no shell.
Sample findings Fentoni Chromodoris directly sent to the California State Polytechnic University, where verification of these animals ever documented.
