Chromodoris quadricolor is a highly vibrant species of sea slug, belonging to the dorid nudibranch family. Classified as a marine opisthobranch gastropod mollusc, this particular nudibranch stands out due to its multicolored appearance, combining shades of yellow, white, blue, and black.

Originally discovered in the 🌊 Red Sea, Chromodoris quadricolor is among the most commonly encountered nudibranchs in that region. Additionally, sightings of this species have been recorded in various other areas within the Western 🌊 Indian Ocean.

The primary food source for this dorid nudibranch is the red sponge Negombata magnifica (Keller, 1889).
