With egg mass (lower left and subsequent photos). Also note small "parasitic" Gymnodoris digging into the middle of the side of the Doris facing the camera. It left a scar.
First time that I have seen this one . Length 15 cm . Oval in shape
Interestingly, according to all the ID books and web sites my dive buddy and I found, this species is only known from New Caledonia, in the subtropcis of the Southern hemisphere. This one we found at 70 m, at Monad seamount in the Philippines.
