About Doris immonda
Sea Slugs of Hawaii explicitly restricts the listed Hawaiian distribution to Kauai and French Frigate Shoals.
WoRMS AphiaID 549227 lists Doris immonda as accepted; expert account warns it is not the taxon illustrated under Siraius immonda on the Sea Slug Forum.
Expert account says one of two known animals was in rubble at ~8 m and the second was living in an intertidal tidepool complex.
Accepted identity, explicit Kauaʻi distribution, and direct shallow/intertidal habitat pass; yellow because evidence is only two animals and local date is unavailable.
