Hi Bill.
I took this pic at Henry's Head, Botany Bay, NSW [Sydney, Australia] in about 22 meters of water. I was wondering whether you could please identify it for me.
Many thanks,
Allan

This is Chromodoris loringi. It is one of a group of similarly coloured species, such as Hypselodoris bennetti and Chromodoris thompsoni which are found only in southeastern Australia. In fact they only occur a little to the north and south of the New South Wales borders.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
