Elysia sp. e563

This unidentified species was initially known from a single specimen found underneath a rock at a depth of 6m on 24 November 2008. It measured 13mm in length.

Two more were found in Halimeda on a Kwajalein lagoon reef on 4 July 2011.

The next specimen looked similar to Elysia pusilla, but the papillose rhinophores tied it to the current species.
