The highly variable Sclerodoris tuberculata looks extremely similar, I don't know how to distinguish them, I think they are one species... The specimens #1 and #3 were identified by Dr. Richard Willan, thanks! This species was posted on 17 June 2011 at these websites as Aldisa sp. B Genus: Bergh, 1878, and changed on 16 July 2011 into Aldisa sp. 02 Genus: Bergh, 1878. For some genera was the alphabet almost through. I had to change the distinguishing alphabetic character into a number. I had chosen 2-digit numbers, even though '01' looks a little bit stupid, and now is only the genus italic written. R.F. Johnson (2011) moved the genus Aldisa Bergh, 1878 from the family Dorididae Rafinesque, 1815 to the resurrected family Cadlinidae Bergh, 1891. Reference: Johnson, Rebecca F. 2011.
