Hoplodoris estrelyado from the Solomons

Dear Bill,
I have seen this very pretty nudibranch several times here, and originally identified it from Debelius' book as Hoplodoris nodulosa. However after seeing Mary Jane's Hoplodoris estrelyado I guess it is actually that.
Filmed at Honiara, Solomon Islands, in about 6 meters on a rubble site. February 2001

Bruce Potter.

It is indeed Hoplodoris estrelyado, and the side view gives us a good view of the tubercular nature of the mantle.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
