Below is comment from Dr. Bill Rudman, go to Sea Slug Forum to read more information
Dear Wee,
I haven't seem many illustrations of H. johnsonorum but it seems that that species has yellow lines only on the ridges and does not have the high ridges and tubercles found in your animal. I am pretty sure your animal is H. willeyi.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
Thanks to White G.A. for suggesting identification for this species. His note: As seen in New Caledonia. Pity one can't see the rhinopores.
