Syphonota differs from the other Aplysiidae genera, through the position of the
rhinophores (head tentacles), which are further back, almost between the
parapodial lobes. The parapodia, fleshy winglike outgrowths, come to a noticeable high point at the top of the animal. The body coloration is whitish to green, with brown specks and a complicated network of white lines (hence the name 'geographica'). The maximum recorded length is 170 mm. ==Habitat==
