    This nudibranch, Kalinga ornata, is a perfect example of a what-the-heck-is-going-on-here creature. I mean just look at this thing - it's basically a blob of mismatched bumps and lumps bedazzled with red, orange, blue, and yellow spots. Ok, nudibranch... come on now. Let's get it together here. Choose a style and run with it!
