“Genre de mollusques gastropodes, renfermant des animaux nus, de touts les mers.”
A popular genre of gastropods. Also the name of a boat (a dory, I reckon) and a mythological personage (daughter of Ocean and Tethys, wife of Neree, have no idea what she’s really known for).
Happy Mother’s Day, little nudibranch.
We’ve had The Larousse For You in these pages before. I’m sure we will again. Because it’s beautiful.
