AB The nudibranch diversity of the western Indian Ocean is comparatively one of the least studied in the world. In this paper a spongelikeDiscodoridae nudibranch Jorunna liviae sp. nov. is described. The description is based on integrative anatomy, includingmolecular analysis of two genes (the mitochondrial COI and the nuclear H3), dissections, electron microscopy (SEM) of buccalelements, micro tomography of the spicule’s arrangements and ecological observations. This study provides the first ever moleculardata of Jorunna species from the western Indian Ocean, helping to fill the gap to further understand this apparent paraphyletic genus.
