i was going to say the same looks like Neodoris chrysoderma hard to see though as its quite far away,
ppllaann
It must be very similar, but a different one since it was spotted in the atlantic

Looks a lot like Neodoris chrysoderma, but what confuses me is that this nudibranch is placed in the web sites as in Australian waters. If your spotting was in Portugal, perhaps is a related species.
