  Those are eggs of other species of Nudibranch that this one is feeding on.
  Nudibranch of the genus Favorinus feeds on eggs of other Nudibranch, usually will see several of them gathering in a ribbon cluster of Nudibranch eggs. Posted 5 years ago

      There's even Nudibranch that feeds on other species of Nudibranch/Sea Slugs.
