Phyllidiella pustulosa
(Cuvier, 1804)
Also known as: Phyllidia melanocera
» If you find this species has been misidentified, please let us know
Identification is verified by Nathalie Yonow, Nudi Pixel expert
Comment from Nathalie Yonow: I think that is the anal papilla, the black conical protrusion on the far left of the slug. The tubercles are arranged in angular groups, and in a central + lateral series, characteristic of pustulosa.
Thanks to Mary Jane Adams for suggesting identification for this species
