Sea Angel
Facts
- Order: Opisthobranchia
- Family: Clionidae
- Habitat: Polar regions and tropical seas
Transparent Part: Body
These wonderful sea snails have fin-shaped wings that have earned the name “sea angel”. They use their wings to swim through the water and look like they’re flying. Like manta rays. These snails don’t have a shell to protect them, so rely on predators simply not noticing them - with the help of a see-through body.
