Cerberilla mosslandica is a species of sea slug, an aeolid nudibranch, and a marine heterobranch mollusc in the family Aeolidiidae.[2]
This species was described from Monterey Bay, California. It has also been reported near Duncan, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. A specimen from St. Peter the Great Bay, Russia, exhibited more white pigment and lines on the cerata, suggesting it may be a different species.[3]
