Description
Goniobranchus daphne is a chromodorid nudibranch which has a translucent white mantle with scattered red spots. The edge of the mantle is red grading into yellow on the inner side and there are numerous opaque white glands adjacent to this coloured band. The rhinophores are mostly red but translucent at the base. The gills have a deep pink outer rachis and white leaves. Compare with Goniobranchus splendidus, Goniobranchus hunterae and Goniobranchus tasmaniensis which all have similar coloration.
