Identification is verified by Richard Willan, Nudi Pixel expert
Comment from Richard Willan: An actively crawling individual showing the proboscis and foot extended.
Comment from the photographer: Very tiny nudi twirled like a snail. Well, i know they're in the same family but this one is more like a sushi rolled very tiny. Like a marble.
Found in our night dive last weekend. Please help me identify. Thank you.
