This is Flabellina bicolor. It looks like it has sustained some body damage, perhaps through a predator. It's left rhinophore is damaged, and the body seems to have been cut or bitten off at the level of the 4th ceratal group. Regrowth is probably quite quick, but we really don't have much information on the topic.
