Dykning med Discodorididae Nøgensnegle

Koh Lantas Marineliv | Discodorididae

Discodorididae-nudskaller findes på mange dykkersteder, især når man dykker omkring Lanta.

Mange medlemmer af Discodorididae-familien har en flad ryg med mange farvede knolde (buler), som ligner vortesnegle, og et bredt kappeskørt. De større og lysere knolde (buler) er ofte placeret langs kanten af flere rygge, som løber langs ryggen på nøgensneglen.

Som hos andre nøgensneglefamilier kan mange medlemmer af denne familie udskille giftige syrer gennem huden på rygskjoldet som en forsvarsforanstaltning.

Discodorididae Nakkesnegle kan trække deres gæller og næsehorn (tentakler på toppen af hovedet) ind i lommer, når de bliver forstyrret, for at beskytte sig selv.
