Eyespot Costasiella
An Eyespot Costasiella (Costasiella ocellifera) moving around on his Paddle Blade Alga. You can see his little heart beating (just behind the blue spot).
Costasiellas are sap-sucking slugs that feed by kleptoplasy, stealing the chloroplasts from their host algae and keeping them alive and photosynthesizing inside their bodies for energy.
