Dear Erwin,
I think this is what I am calling Chromodoris cf. colemani. I have added red lines alongside pointing to translucent bands on the mantle which are sometimes orange brown. Looking back at an earlier photo which you sent from the Philippines, and I thought was probably a juvenile Chromodoris cf. africana, is possibly Chromodoris cf. colemani. I think I can see traces of these translucent lines - but I can't be 100% sure.
Cheers,
Bill Rudman
