Surely no creature deserves to be christened with a name as repulsive as “varicose wart slug”? Especially not something as brightly coloured, weird and wonderful as this marine mollusc.

The varicose wart slug is found in the tropical marine environment of koh Chang and also all across the Indian and pacific ocean region.
