Nudibranchs and Related Molluscs by Robert Burn showcases the extraordinary world of nudibranchs, often referred to as the 'butterflies of the sea'. This fascinating group includes bubble shells, sea hares, side-gilled slugs, sap-sucking slugs, and sea butterflies (pteropods). Known for their beauty, colour, and delicate appearance, these marine creatures are some of the most captivating.

In south-eastern Australia alone, there are over 400 species of nudibranchs. This guide is designed for marine naturalists, divers, biologists, and enthusiasts who are keen to learn about the nudibranchs and related molluscs typically found in the Bass Strait region. It covers essential topics such as identification, biology, and the relationships these creatures have with other plants and animals.

An introductory pictorial key assists with identification, while nearly 250 species descriptions are enhanced by stunning colour photographs and illustrations to ensure accurate recognition. The guide also includes further references and a glossary, making it a comprehensive resource for anyone interested in these remarkable sea creatures.
