From: Richard Houghton

Dear Bill,
This 6cm nudibranch could be Chromodoris reticulata.

Found at the bottom of a reef slope at about 10 metres, off Kapalai Island, Malaysia in August 2002.

Dear Rich,
C. reticulata is one of the synonyms of Chromodoris tinctoria. This colour form lacks the orange or yellow marginal band on the mantle.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
