Thanks to Nishina Masayoshi for suggesting identification for this species
Comment from Nishina Masayoshi: Hi, This animal looks like "Noumea nivalis Baba, 1937". However, As far as I know, there is no record in a sea area south than the main island of Japan. Even no record in Okinawa. So, my idea is let it be as Chromodoris sp. or handle as Noumea cf. nivalis. Best Regards, Nishina Masayoshi
