2023 printing - The three leading scientific experts on nudibranchs and sea slugs, Terrence Gosliner, Ángel Valdés and David Behrens, collaborated to produce a comprehensive guide for divers and scientists to the Indo-Pacific region.

This region supports the most diverse marine fauna of any place in the world for most groups of marine organisms. The nudibranchs and sea slugs are no exception to this rule; there are about 3,000 described species of these organisms in the world and at least 40% of these have been found exclusively in the Indo-Pacific tropics.
