Thanks Erwin,
I am pretty sure this is Chelidonura sandrana but the relative lengths of the 'tails' is a problem. In this photo the right 'tail' is long and well-developed while the left one is a small stump. In C. sandrana the opposite occurs. One possibility is that the photo was scanned in reverse. Can you check please?
Thanks,
Bill
