Philinopsis speciosa is a predatory headshield slug with a brown to black body and pale or orange edges on its parapodia. Its colouring varies from dark and uniform to mottled.

It grows to about 5-7 cm and hunts bubble snails and other sea slugs, following their trails and swallowing them whole. It often burrows just under the sand.

In the Philippines it is found on sandy slopes, most often encountered at night.
