Phyllodesmium opalescens Rudman, 1991 Distinctive features include: few cerata, body transparent with a series of diamonds on the center of the notum, ceratal cores thick, undulating and yellow-orange, head tentacles, rhinophores and cerata tipped in white. Terry's photo in Indo-Pacific Nudibranchs is of a much more colorful specimen, one with blue on the head tentacles and near the tip the cerata. The geographic range is western Pacific - let's add Komodo Indonesia to that.
