Phyllidia varicosa
Lamarck, 1801
» If you find this species has been misidentified, please let us know
Identification is verified by Richard Willan, Nudi Pixel expert
Comment from Richard Willan: The dorsal tubercles are arranged in definite longitudinal ridges, which is typical of Phyllidia varicosa. They would not be arranged so regularly like this in Phyllidia coelestis and also there are not enough small pustules close to the edge of the mantle to be Phyllidia coelestis.
