Identification is verified by Richard Willan, Nudi Pixel expert
Comment from Richard Willan: A typical individual. Note the smooth rhinophores without any elaboration, which are characteristic of the Aegiridae and unique among dorids. Note that the spelling Aegiridae is correct for this family (Aegiretidae is an incorrect spelling).
