Hi,
We found this Polycera capensis at Clifton Gardens wharf, Sydney, NSW, Australia, 13 May 2000. It was in about 7m. We saw one here last year in October too.
Cheers

Your Polycera capensis looks a bit lonely. Usually there are found in groups on the bryozoan they eat. Perhaps this is a straggler looking for food after the bryozoan colony was eaten out.
Bets wishes,
