Nembrotha aurea is described from South Africa. The specimens from Indonesia have much less longitudinal lines on both sides of the body and sadly I never got to study them so I cannot confirm that they are the same species.

This un-named species appears to be quite common in the western Pacific.

A very small juvenile individual.

According to the latest, this is un-named. Similar to Nembrotha aurea ...

A distinct species

This is also Nembrotha sp.which is closest to Nembrotha aurea, but distinct

It is undescribed

Either Nembrotha chamberlaini or Nembrotha purpureolineata

Definitely not Nembrotha guttata. Nor is it Nembrotha kubaryana, so I think for now it has to be Nembrotha sp. It can joint that guttata-look-alike, which had white dusting in its pigment pattern. No idea of size, I suppose? There seem to be a clutch of these species with similar spots and colours!
