Hypselodoris kanga is a species of sea slug or dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Chromodorididae.[2]
This nudibranch was described from Kunduchi, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. It was previously reported throughout the Indian Ocean and West Pacific Ocean.[2] Specimens from the Pacific Ocean are now thought to be other species, including Hypselodoris confetti and Hypselodoris roo.[3] It has been recorded from Mozambique.[4]
