Taxonomic note: <\/strong>The European Atlantic and Mediterranean species of the genus Chromodoris<\/em> and Hypselodoris<\/em> have been reconsidered. After molecular analysis of the Chromodorididae performed by Johnson & Gosliner (2012, Traditional taxonomic groupings mask evolutionary history: A molecular phylogeny and new classification of the chromodorid nudibranchs<\/a>. PLoS ONE 7(4): 33479) the Hypselodoris<\/em> species have been included in the genus Felimare<\/em> Ev. Marcus & Er. Marcus, 1967 and the Chromodoris<\/em> species have been included in the genus Felimida<\/em> Ev. Marcus, 1971.<\/p>However, a recent study by Matsuda and Gosliner (2017) employed molecular phylogenetic analyses to investigate the relationships within the family Chromodorididae. Their research revealed that Felimida edmundsi<\/em>\u00a0clustered in a distinct clade with Felimida dalli<\/em> and Doriprismatica sedna<\/em> that is more accurately represented by the genus Chromolaichma<\/em>. Consequently, Felimida edmundsi<\/em> was reclassified as Chromolaichma edmundsi<\/em> to reflect these phylogenetic findings.<\/p>\n
