Concerning message #15764:

I think this is correctly identified as Adalaria proxima. It has rather inflated tubercles which makes it look a lot like Onchidoris muricata, which has shorter, star-shaped spicules at its base. However, O. muricata tends to have less pointed tubercle tips and the tubercle spicules are more spread out rather than coalescing at the center.
