This is a tropical visitor, Atagema intecta, which we sometimes find this far down the east Australian coast. The dirty white line down the median ridge between the gills and the rhinophores is a good way of distingusihing it from other brownish dorid nudibranchs you may come across.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
