Description
Goniobranchus alderi has a pattern of red lines forming a loose reticulate network on the mantle. There is a series of deep red spots towards the margin and a yellow marginal line. The gills are white with red lines and the rhinophores have red clubs with small white spots. An animal from Sagami Bay, Japan identified as Chromodoris tinctoria is a good match for the original illustration.
