Conclusion: Chelidonura pallida

Reviewed by Codex identification research on Aug 27, 2026 · 93% reviewer confidence.

Reasoning recorded at review

  • Opaque white body
  • Thin black outer line around the mantle and parapodial edge
  • Orange-yellow band immediately inside the black line
  • Elongate Chelidonura head-shield body with paired posterior extensions

Alternatives considered

  • Chelidonura electra

    Why plausible: Another white Chelidonura formerly considered a possible colour form

    Comparison: C. electra has a yellow edge but lacks the outer black line that is clearly visible here
