A family of colorful marine sea slugs (nudibranchs) found in oceans worldwide, known for their vivid patterns and toxic defenses.
From the genus Doris with the family suffix '-idae'; created using Linnaean taxonomy conventions for classifying marine mollusks.
Dorididae sea slugs are nature's living paintings—their impossible colors advertise toxins they've stolen from other creatures and repurposed for defense, a process called sequestration.
