Goniodoridella savignyi from Papua New Guinea

Dear Dr.Rudman,

My name is Yoshimi Kitamura, your site is very useful and enjoyable, So I like it.
Now, recently I've been to Loloata Island, Papua New Guinea with Nishina and found this.

I believe that this is a kind of Goniodoridella savignyi, but I am not sure because of the differences between the one that I found at Papua New Guinea and a one on your species list.

Best Regards,
Yoshimi Kitamura

Dear Yoshimi,
You and Nishina seem to have found some interesting things on your trip to Papua New Guinea. This is indeed Goniodoridella savignyi. You don't mention its size, but it looks like it is a quite big example of this species, and so the yellow colour pigment is more intense than the Russian photos.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
