Baeolidia is the most diverse genus under the family Aeolidiidae. The genus has a widespread distribution with records from the Indo-Pacific, central and eastern Pacific, Red Sea, and Mediterranean Sea. Until now, this genus was represented by only one species from India, Baeolidia salaamica, however, we report Baeolidia moebii as a new record to India and the second species from the subcontinent. This paper not only provides the first sequences of mitochondrial (COI and 16S) DNA for the species from the Indian Ocean but also discusses the possibilities supporting its Lessepsian migration and the relationship between B. moebii and B. australis.
