Hi Bill,

If it's any help in ID-ing, here are a couple more photos of the aeolid you've named Facelina sp. 1, with a close-up of the head.

This species seemed to appear on the scene only a month ago and now it can be found at many dive sites along the several kilometers of Eilat coast.

Locality: Eilat, Lighthouse Beach, Israel, Red Sea (Gulf of Eilat). Depth: 16 m. Length: ca. 2.5 cm. 9 April 2005. patch reef. Photographer: Binyamin and Shulamit Koretz

Best regards,
Binyamin

Thanks Binyamin,
Every bit helps. I have had a further look for a name but I am pretty sure it is an unnamed species.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
