bug-eating slug
SCORE 7
This new family, Aitengidae, breaks the mold of its sea slug relatives by feasting on insects instead of algae. Its unique diet makes it a fascinating addition to the world of new species.
TOP COMMENT
"its discovery has resulted in a new family, aitengidae. although it shares nearly all characteristics with sacoglossans, it exhibits unusual eating habits. this sea slug eats insects, whereas nearly all sacoglossans eat algae and a few specialize in gastropod eggs."
