Ross,
If you don't have it, get 'Pacific Coast Nudibranchs' by Dave Behrens (2nd Edition). It's the local nudibranch bible.
Behrens has many more species and text, which is sometimes really helpful for distinguishing characteristics, but you'll generally find at least a couple different photos, often showing different color variations or just different perspectives which might help with ID, on http://divebums.com/FishID/Nudibranchs.html -- something on the order of 60 local species. The thumbnails on the URL above are links to individual species pages.
Happy branching!
John
