Gymnodoris bicolor from Jinshawan Beach Park, Taiwan
Identification verified by Richard Willan
 

Identification is verified by Richard Willan, Nudi Pixel expert

Comment from Richard Willan: This dorid nudibranch is recognised by the row of papillae on the oral margin, and also by the widely spaced tiny pustules on the body, each capped with a yellow or orange spot. The genital aperture (which is well-shown in this photo) is level with the gills – a most unusual rearward position that is unique for dorids.
