Aplysia parvula

Sea hares are a group of sea slugs which feed on algae and retain a small internal shell. Some can swim by flapping their large parapodia. The curled up rhinophores resemble a rabbit or a hare's ears, hence the common name. Some can produce a purple ink which they release if disturbed.
