Flabellina sp. 8 from Lembeh, Indonesia

From: Mona Dienhart
Back from Lembeh, I still haven't found the right ID for the following nudibranch. It was found on one of the spots on the corals. I browsed already to your existing list but didn't find anything similar.
Locality: Lembeh , 12 m, Sulawesi, Indonesia, Lembeh Straits, Molucca Sea, 27 April 2007, light current. Length: 3 cm. Photographer: Mona Dienhart.

Dear Mona,
This is an animal I am calling Flabellina sp. 8. We already have 3 messages about this species on the Forum, and now we have yours. Before that it seems to have been completely unknown. Ypur photo shows the quite unusual half ridges [brackets] on the rhinophores.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
