Mad as a Marine Biologist

High-res Komodo ‘11: Day Four: Deadman’s Island Great wall dive. One of the first things spotted were these two HUGE Pleurobranchs. Pleurobranchus is a genus of side-gilled slugs [Suborder: Notaspidea]. Their anatomy is characterized by a single, external ctenidium (respiratory apparatus) on the right side, rolled rhinophores, and a flattened shell. I have no idea what this species is. Help very welcome. Any ideas?
