Armina semperi from Lankayan, Malaysia

Comment from Nathalie Yonow: According to Baba, 1955: he found this in Japan, Bergh described it from the Philippines, I have never seen it. However, with the little I know, I think the blue and yellow margin edge and red rhinophores are a bit of a givaway! Baba records it as 40 – 45 mm long; from the photo of the sand grains, yours looks much smaller?? And your rhinophores are red, blue and white: in Baba’s painting, they are red basally with white ends. This is the best I can do!
