Felimare kempfi is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Chromodorididae.[2]

Taxonomy

This species has previously been placed in the genera Chromodoris Alder & Hancock, 1855 and Mexichromis Bertsch, 1977.[3] It was recently transferred to Felimare by Johnson & Gosliner in 2012.[4][3]

Distribution

Distribution of Felimare kempfi includes Florida, Mexico, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Brazil, Puerto Rico and Panama.[3]

Description

The body is elongate, narrow, with the posterior portion of foot extending slightly beyond the mantle margin.[3] Background color is bright blue with a thick yellow line around the mantle margin.[3] There is a central white line and a series of large black and white spots extend down the dorsum.[3] Rhinophores and gills are blue, branchial leaves are with black rachises.[3] It is up to 20 mm long.[3]
