Description
Also known as Marine Worms and Pseudoceros suzannae.
Found singly or in pairs on coral and rocky reefs amongst sand and rubble.
They feed on ascidians and shelled molluscs.
Length - 3cm
Depth - 5-20m
Widespread Indo-Pacific
Flatworms can move fast along the bottom by rapidly beating tiny hairs which act like millions of feet to propel them along in an undulating manner.
They feed by placing themselves over their victims and sucking in their prey, a tube like extension in its mouth acts as a grinder.
Many flatworms are confused with seaslugs and visa versa.
