Pectenodoris aurora is characterised by a pinkish purple to blue background
colour. There are three broad opaque white longitudinal bands on the mantle, with a
narrower yellowish line down the middle of each band. The central band forms a
narrow ring around the gill pocket. Between the white bands are a number of large
diffuse dark purple or blue spots. At the mantle edge are scattered smaller opaque
white spots and sometimes dark blue or purple spots as well. The rhinophore clubs are
orange with a broad white median band. The rhinophore stalks are translucent orange.
The gills are similarly coloured - orange with a median white band.
