Cratena peregrina




This design is based on Cratena peregrina, a nudibranch that is found endemically in the mediterranean sea. The polyps they eat are used both as a food source and defence, as they don’t digest the sting capsules, but transport them to the cerata on their backs. As they feed mostly on Polyps, that just fished for plankton, eating both the captured plankton and the polyps.
I observed this species during dives in the Mediterranean, inspiring this design.

Jedes Design wird auf Bestellung gefertigt, sodass die Unterwasserwelt zu etwas tragbarem wird. Melde dich bei Fragen gerne an contact@sunnyseaembroidery.de.
