Costasiella Kuroshimae
''Costasiella kuroshimae''—also known as a "leaf slug", "leaf sheep", or "salty ocean caterpillar"—is a species of sacoglossan sea slug. ''Costasiella kuroshimae'' are shell-less marine opisthobranch gastropod mollusks in the family Costasiellidae. They range in size from to in length. Discovered in 1993 off the coast of the Japanese island Kuroshima, ''Costasiella kuroshimae'' have been found in the waters near Japan, the Philippines, and Indonesia. They have two dark eyes and two rhinophores that emerge from the tops of their heads that look not unlike sheep's ears or insect antennae, hence the common name "leaf sheep". The rhinophores have fine hairs that sense chemicals in the water, enabling ''Costasiella kuroshimae'' and other sea slugs to find food sources. ''Costasiella kuroshimae'' are capable of a chemical process called kleptoplasty, in which they retain the chloroplasts from the algae Algae (; singular alga ) is an informal term for a large and dive ...

Costasiella Ocellifera
''Costasiella ocellifera'' is a small (5-13 mm) species of sea slug, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Costasiellidae. ''Costasiella ocellifera'', and other members of the Costasiellidae family are often mistakenly classified as nudibranchs because they superficially resemble other species of that group, but they are actually a part of the Sacoglossa superorder of sea slugs, also known as the “sap-sucking sea slugs,” "crawling leaves" or the "solar-powered sea slugs." ''C. ocellifera'' was discovered by Simroth in 1895, and was initially classified as ''Doto ocellifera''. The Brazilian species, ''Costasiella liliana,'' is a synonym of ''C. ocellifera''.''Costasiella ocellifera'' shows long-term retention of functional kleptoplasty. Etymology The name 'ocellifera' comes from the Latin word for eye, ''ocellus'' and the Latin word "ifer" which means "to carry" and is in reference to the blue eyespot found on the top of ''Costasiella ocellifera''’s head. ...

Costasiella Nonatoi
''Costasiella nonatoi'' is a species of sacoglossan sea slug in the genus ''Costasiella''. It is one of few species in the genus that is not photosynthetic. The description of this species was based on two specimens which werserially sectionedand designated as the holotype. The species was named after Dr. Edmundo Nonato, a professor at the Oceanographic Institute of the University of São Paulo. Geographic range ''Costasiella nonatoi'' inhabits the coastal areas of the Caribbean sea and some of the Atlantic Ocean. Individuals can be found off the shores of Florida in the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil, Panama, and Curaçao. Habitat Resides in warm marine waters, specifically burrowing within different species of green algae. Physical description This slug is typically between 2 and 4 mm and is primarily black in colour with opaque white or transparent tips of rhinophores, cerata, foot, tail, and periocular area.
