Hi Bill,
This one seems to fit the description of your namesake, Phyllidiella rudmani. I shot it a Karumolun Island in the Russell Group of the Solomon Islands in Nov., 2000. Length: 26 mm, Depth not recorded. What do you think?
Best regards,
Mary Jane

Thanks Mary Jane,
This is definitely Phyllidiella rudmani. If you compare this with Bruce's photo you can see that the black lines in P. rudmani are much straighter and the rhinophores are pink and black.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
