The name is derived from Dirona Albolineata, or the
Alabaster Nudibranch, an invertebrate indigenous to the Puget Sound that we
often see when scuba diving. Over 3,000
Nudibranch species live throughout the world's oceans—their
fantastic forms and psychedelic colors make them among our
favorite sea creatures.
