Geitodoris Planata
''Geitodoris planata'' is a species of sea slug or dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Discodorididae. Taxonomy It was originally described from Europe. Caribbean populations are morphologically similar but almost certainly distinct. Alvim & Pimenta (2013) regarded Caribbean animals as '' Geitodoris pusae'' (Er. Marcus, 1955), but no molecular studies have been conducted to compare animals from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. Further research is necessary to clarify the status of this species. Distribution Distribution of ''Geitodoris planata'' includes Mediterranean Sea, North Atlantic Ocean, North Sea, Western Atlantic: New Jersey, St. Lucia and Panama. The type locality is "Lamlash Bay", Isle of Arran, Scotland. Description The body is oval. Mantle is rigid. Dorsum is covered by rounded, stalked tubercles. Background color is grayish-brown with some dark brown irregular patches. The color fades and becomes more translucent towards the mantle marg ...

Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=420600 on 2012-03-01 Taxonomy This species as well as ''Geitodoris planata'' are similar to '' Geitodoris pusae''. Further review is necessary to clarify the taxonomic status of these taxa. Distribution Distribution of ''Geitodoris immunda'' includes Gulf of Mexico, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Brazil and Panama.

Discodorididae
Discodorididae is a taxonomic family of sea slugs, specifically dorid nudibranchs, marine gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Doridoidea.Bouchet, P. (2011). Discodorididae. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=1761 on 2011-08-23 Species in this family belong to the cryptobranch dorid nudibranchs, i.e. they are able to retract their gills into a gill pocket (cryptobranch = hidden gills). Most are small and hard to identify. Most are thought to feed at night on sponges, while during the day they search for dark areas or remain hidden under rocks. One example of a discodoridid is the "Pacific sea lemon" or "speckled sea lemon", ''Peltodoris nobilis'', which occurs off the coast of British Columbia to Baja California from low-tide waters to a depth of about 200 m. Not only is this species yellow with a bumpy surface, but it also gives off a strong fruity citrus smell when handled, adding to its resembl ...
