Dear Erwin,
Unfortunately there is no perfect way identifying this group of chromdorids externally. I am 99% sure that these are Noumea norba. certainly the colour of the gills, and the reddish-purple spotting along the inside edge of the mantle margin, are typical of that species.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
