Identification is verified by Richard Willan, Nudi Pixel expert
Comment from Richard Willan: This dorid nudibranch, which seems to be endemic to northern Western Australia, is characterised by the translucent white mantle, yellow or golden marginal band, relatively few yellow or golden ridges, black spots in the central depressions, and by radial black streaks in the depressions on the flanks.
