Identification is verified by Richard Willan, Nudi Pixel expert
Comment from Richard Willan: This aeolid nudibranch is characterised by the 3 large opaque white spots on the head – one connecting the bases of the oral tentacles and one on either side of the ‘cheeks’. These spots are nicely shown in this photo.
