In this mini film we encounter one of Cornwall’s most striking and distinct marine residents: the Disco Doris sea slug (Gargamella rosi).
In this episode of short films dedicated to different marine wildlife, we shine a spotlight on this eye-catching nudibranch. Boasting a brilliant, orange body covered in white circular patterns, this small creature advertises its defence against predators through its striking appearance. Typically found hiding among sponges and rocky crevices, it’s a stunning marine sea slug.
We take a close look at its anatomy, its specialised diet, and how it senses its food and uses its gills to breathe underwater. Whether you are a macro underwater photographer, a diver, or British wildlife enthusiast, the Disco Doris is one of our most spectacular creatures, and one that only first appeared in the UK less than 20 years ago.
📺 About this series: This video is part of a dedicated series of mini-films exploring the UK’s most incredible featured creatures. Each short documentary zooms in on a specific, marine species found along the British coastline — from giant crabs to pulsating jellyfish.
