Sclerodoris tuberculata from Philippines

Bill,
Here's another shot taken in Anilao, Luzon Island, Philippines in April, 2002 that Dave Behrens identified for me as a possibly unidentified Sclerodoris. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jeff

Dear Jeff,
This is Sclerodoris tuberculata, which ranges in colour for this red form which used to be considered a distinct species, Sclerodoris rubra, to dull brown forms.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
