Hi Bill,
Here are two photos of a specimen pictured in Antalya, Turkey. Very smooth rhinophores and the structure of the cerata suggests Piseinotecus gabinierei. What do you think?

Thanks Baki,
I think your ID is correct. You mention smooth rhinophores. Schmekel & Portmann describe the rhinophores as being 'finely annularly wrinkled' and in your lower photo the right rhinophore does show an iregular outline.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
