Identification is verified by Nathalie Yonow, Nudi Pixel expert
Comment from Nathalie Yonow: Phyllidia undula, only recorded from the Red Sea. I have seen one specimen from South Africa but nothing else. If you have any others, I would be happy to revise my ideas, but internal characteristics and juveniles of four of these species are consistently different. You only get this one in the Red Sea by the way.
