Chelidonura inornata from Coral Sea

Hi Bill

Found this one at Eel Gardens, Flinders Reef during my recent Coral Sea trip.

Is it some form of Swallowtail?

Best regards

Dear Des,
This is Chelidonura inornata in one of its favourite poses - crawling over a coral colony presumably looking for acoel flatworms to eat.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
