Hi Bill,
A friend found several of these critters in Honduras and I thought it was interesting. It appears to be the same as one in Humann's Reef Creature reference,listed as Phyllidiopsis papilligera, commonly called 'black spotted nudibranch'.

Thanks Marli,
As I discuss in a separate message, this species is now considered better placed in the genus Ceratophyllidia.
Best wishes
