Hi Bill,
Here's a Melibe pilosa from Hawaii to add to the species list. Infrequently seen on algae-encrusted stones in a meter of water near shore at night. Photo taken Feb. 1991 at Makapu`u, Oahu, Hawaii.

Thanks Keoki,
I still find some of the large species of Melibe difficult to separate from one another so any help with photos and information is very welcome. At present this species seems to be endemic to the Hawaiian Islands
Best wishes
