Platydoris cf pulchra Eliot, 1904
40mm

This one resembles the figure in Gosliner et al (2018) of Platydoris pulchra, a species from the Indian Ocean. Our specimens were found at Sidem and Batuniti.

On the same rock was a smaller Platydoris that may have been a variation but is currently being treated as something different (Platydoris sp. b380).

The one below was similar but smaller, although it does not seem an exact match for the specimens above. It also closely resembles the one we are calling Sclerodoris(?) sp. b451, although it differs in its smooth surface.
