Hi Bill,
I am very excited about finding this animal.I have ID it as Hypselodoris kaname. I hope I am right as there does not appear to be any records from this part of the world. Could you please confirm?

Locality: Shag Rock, Point Lookout, North Stradbroke Island., 7 metres, Queensland Australia, Pacific ocean, 03 June 2006, rocky reef with sponges, hard & soft corals . Length: 30mm. Photographer: Bruce Wilkie

Many Thanks,
Bruce Wilkie.
