Thanks to Vinicius Padula for suggesting identification for this species, following is his comment: The genus Hypselodoris in the western Atlantic needs a comprehensive revision. This morphotype was previously identified as Hypselodoris marci. However it's clear a different species and recently was described and named Hypselodoris olgae Ortea & Bacallado, 2007. Regards, Vinicius Padula Museu Nacional / UFRJ Rio de Janeiro - Brazil
Comment from the photographer: looked it up on the seaslugforum and closest resemblence with Hypselodoris Sp5.
