Jorunna rubescens is very strange looking dorid which looks more like a
Nembrotha or Polycera than a species of Jorunna. It was formerly known as
Kentrodoris rubescens, but Angel Valdés and Terrence M. Gosliner reviewed the
caryophyllidia-bearing dorids. One of their conclusions is that Kentrodoris
is a generic synonym of Jorunna.
