About Pseudoceros lindae Newman & Cannon, 1994
Pseudoceros lindae grows to a length of 50–80 millimetres (2.0–3.1 in). It has a thick, elongated body; the upper surface has a wine-colored (burgundy) background with turquoise margins and a variable number of oval to round yellow-golden spots. The pattern, particularly the density of the spots, varies between individuals. The ventral side of the body is light purple. Each pseudotentacle develops from a broad simple fold on the body's anterior margins, and the pharynx is formed from highly elaborated folds. This species is a simultaneous hermaphrodite capable of cross fertilization. It has a single male reproductive organ that can penetrate any part of a mate's body, while females have a short vagina directed backwards. Pseudoceros lindae is widespread across the tropical Indo-Pacific, ranging from Madagascar and the eastern coast of Africa to Indonesia, the Philippines, and Australia's Great Barrier Reef. It inhabits the external slope or top of coral reefs.
