Unidentified elysiid species, extremely rare in Eilat. This sole specimen was encountered in daytime on the deep reef south of Moses Rock in spring. Length observed was about 0.5 cm. The specimen bears some resemblance to Thuridilla carlsoni and even more resemblance to an undescribed Caribbean species known on the Sea Slug Forum as Thuridilla sp. 1.
