I have recently seen this nudibranch but do not know whether it is Flabellina species or others, can someone help me to identify it please.
Thanks.

Lee, A., 2002 (Mar 26) Flabellina? identification. [Message in] Sea Slug Forum. Australian Museum, Sydney. Available from http://www.seaslugforum.net/find/6499Dear Alice,
Could you let me know where it is from please? I guess it may be Singapore, from your email address. Although it does look like a species of Flabellina I am pretty sure that your animal is Cuthona sibogae which appears to feed exclusively on an orange hydroid. I think in your photo only the basal stalk of its food remains.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
