    These organisms had very small shells. Dorid nudibranchs most likely evolved their ability to absorb chemicals from their prey prior to losing their shells. Developing natural toxicity allowed them to easily deter predators, enabling them to dispense with their protective shells.
    Dorid nudibranchs lack a fossil record, making it difficult to tell when they first began to evolve and diversify. This is due to their unshelled soft bodies, which do not fossilize well. Their closest relatives in the fossil record are the Pleurobranchoidea from the early Miocene Epoch (about 22 million years ago).
    In addition to colloblasts, members of the genus Haeckelia, which feed mainly on jellyfish, incorporate their victims' stinging nematocytes into their own tentacles – some cnidaria-eating nudibranchs similarly incorporate nematocytes into their bodies for defense.

    Many aeolid nudibranchs consume cnidarians—animals with stinging cells like corals and jellies—and can defend themselves by using these stinging cells. From the arctic regions to the tropics, sea slugs can be found anywhere from the shallow intertidal to the deep sea.
