Image of Diaulula sandiegensis (J. G. Cooper 1863)

Description:

This tiny dorid is confusing me. ~5mm long, rhinophores seemed lamellate, tuburcles spiculate, body shape was an even oval with no noted enlargement on either end, foot did not seem to extend much beyond the mantle as in Akiodoris, but it did have a nice white trim. Found crawling on surfgrass in a pool pretty high on the reef. I'm assuming this is some kind of Adalaria, maybe Adalaria sp. 1 in Behrens, but not sure.
