Hi,
I believe this is a Nembrotha megalocera. I saw it during our very last, shallow dive at the end of a diving cruise in the Red Sea. Video footage available at

Locality: Abu Ramada, 11 m , Egypt, Red Sea, 06 November 2009, sandy bottom. Length: about 30 mm. Photographer: Django Manglunki.

Cheers
Django

Dear Django,

Thanks for the photos. It is good to get another record of this species which seems to be confined to the Red Sea.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
