The Myrrhinidae are a taxonomic family of colourful sea slugs. These are specifically aeolid nudibranchs. They are marine gastropod molluscs. [1]
Taxonomy
DNA studies found the Facelinidae to be polyphyletic and this family was brought back into use to partially resolve that situation. [2]
Genera
Genera within the family Myrrhinidae include:
- Dondice Er. Marcus, 1958
- Godiva Macnae, 1954
- Hermissenda Bergh, 1879
- Nanuca Er. Marcus, 1957
- Nemesignis Furfaro & Mariottini, 2021
- Phyllodesmium Ehrenberg, 1831 (1828)
- Synonyms
- Nemesis Furfaro & Mariottini, 2021: synonym of Nemesignis Furfaro & Mariottini, 2021 (invalid: junior homonym of Nemesis Risso, 1826 [Crustacea]; Nemesignis is a replacement name)
