The blue sea slug is called the Blue Dragon due to its striking blue coloration and unique appearance that resembles a mythical dragon. Its scientific name, Glaucus atlanticus, reflects its marine habitat and distinctive features. This gastropod is known for its ability to float on the ocean surface and its vibrant colors serve as a warning to potential predators about its toxic nature, derived from its diet of venomous jellyfish.
