Dear Bill,
This is a photo of what I think is Trapania brunnea Rudman, 1987.
But I'm not sure.
Locality: Seogwipo. Bum islet, Jeju Island. Sth Korea. Depth: 32 m. Length: 4 mm. 13 June 2004. Rock Wall. Photographer: Dong Bum Koh
Best regards,

D. B. Koh, 2005 (May 28) Trapania toddi from Sth Korea [2]. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/13884Dear Koh,
Although similar to T. brunnea, I think this is also Trapania toddi, although the brown patching is more extensive and the yellow less obvious than your other animal [message #13883]. The pattern of the brown patches on the white background, and the yellow tips to the rhinophores, foot and dorsal processes is typical of that species. Trapania brunnea usually has a background colour of dark brown and some white patches It also seems to be restricted to temperate southern Australia and northern New Zealand.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
