About this book
This field guide is a comprehensive update of Terrence Gosliner's Nudibranchs of Southern Africa. It covers all of the 868 species of sea slugs known from the region, as documented by a dedicated group of researchers and naturalists. The stunning beauty of sea slugs is captured in photographs and illustrations that identify the species, their known variants and their egg ribbons. The text gives details of size, distribution, external anatomy, identifying characteristics and natural history.
With 26 main authors and contributions from many other divers and photographers, this is the definitive guide to sea slugs for the southern African coastline, which includes everything from temperate, storm-lashed waters in the west, to warm, tropical coral reefs in the east.

Biography
Terrence Gosliner is a world authority on sea slugs, and wrote the predecessor to this book, Nudibranchs of Southern Africa in 1987. He is a Senior Curator of Invertebrate Zoology and Geology at the California Academy of Sciences.
Georgina Jones first dived at A-Frame on the western shores of False Bay in 1990. Despite having dived in many different places since then, she remains convinced that the most fascinating place to dive is right where she began! Georgina Jones is a member of SURG and a regular contributor.
