Phyllidiopsis pipeki from the Solomons

Hi Bill,
Here is a photo of an animal found at Karumolun in the Solomons' Russell Islands that while similar to both Phyllidiopsis krempfi and Phyllidiella rudmani [8907], did not quite seem to match the specimens of either of those two species that were also found in the Solomons. All three were similar in size, in the 30-40mm range.

Dear Scott,
I agree it differs from the other two. I suspect this is Phyllidiopsis pipeki
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
