Lederman, O., 2005 (May 24) Noumea flava from the Red Sea. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/13837Dear Oren,
Yes this isNoumea flava. Although there are other small yellow chromodorids [see N. flava group Fact Sheet] , none of them come close to this colour pattern and 'hour glass' shape of the mantle.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
