Clione limacina“冰天使” Scientific classification Kingdom: Animalia ( 动物界） Phylum: Mollusca（软体动物门） Class: Gastropoda（腹足纲） Subclass： Pisthobranchia（后鳃亚纲 ） Order: Pteropoda（翼足目） Suborder: Gymno-somata（裸体亚目） Family: Clionidae ( 海若螺科)  Clione limacina, is a sea angel found from the surface to 350 m in depth. Lives mostly in cold waters ，such as the Arctic and Antarctic Oceans. They are shaped a little like angels, and have flapping “wings”, hence their common name. They are gelatinous（凝胶状的)，mostly transparent (透明的）, and they only have shells in their embryonic stage（胚胎期）. head tentacles:触角 hook sacs:钩囊 buccal bulb (radula):齿舌 nerve ring:神经环 swimming wing:游泳翼 digestive gland:消化腺 Sexes are separate but are seldom conspicuously different externally, simultaneous hermaphrodites(雌雄同体) yet self-fertilization(自体受精) is prevented. Mating is carried out ventrally for mutual fertilization. The following spring, this results in a free-floating, gelatinous egg mass. Clione limacina is a prey of planktonic feeders, such as the baleen whales(须鲸), which historically led to sailors naming it “whale-food”. Some fishes are also its predators(捕食者). Thank you, Goodbye！ * The feeding process of Clione limacina is somewhat extraordinary. The buccal apparatus consists of three pairs of buccal cones. These tentacles grab the shell of Limacina helicina. When the prey（被捕食者） is in the right position, with its shell opening facing the radula of Clione limacina, it then grasps the prey with its chitinous hooks, everted from hook sacs. Then it extracts the body completely out of its shell and swallows it whole. *
