Nembrotha cristata (Crested Nembrotha)
A strikingly colored nudibranch. Many nudibranchs incorporate the toxins of their prey into their bodies to become injurous or unpleasant to eat. N. cristata prey mainly on tunicates, but occasionally prey on jellyfish. This species stores the jellyfish’s nematocysts (stinging cells) within its own body to sting and deter predators.
