Hi Bill!
I found this animal on Flinders Reef north of Moreton Island Queensland Australia 15m depth 20mm long at night. I think she is Bornella stellifer.
Thanks,
Gary.

Dear Gary,
Yes this is Bornella stellifer. I note you call it 'she'. All sea slugs are hermaphrodite - that is fully functional as males and females, so 'it' is probably more appropriate than 'she'.
Cheers
