Superfamilies

Aeolidacea is a suborder of nudibranchs, shell-less marine gastropod molluscs or sea slugs.[2][3]

Taxonomy

The following superfamilies and families are recognised in the suborder Aeolidacea, following the 2025 revision of the taxonomy of Aeolidacea by Korshunova and colleagues based on the results of molecular phylogenetic analysises.[2] Families interpreted as synonyms under the scheme presented by Ekimova et al. (2026) are identified:[3]
