These guys have taken over the Poor Knights Islands this winter 2023. We are not sure what type of okenia that is.
First thought it would be okenia atkinsonorum but the colors of papillae don't match. Any guess?

This guy hardly showed it's shell at all (just see a small amount of it in the last photo.) When flipped over, it didn't retreat into it's shell. It simply righted itself and continued on (as shown in the photos)
