Note  Nomenclature: Euctenidiacea includes the dorid-like nudibranchs and is named Nudibranchia (Anthobranchia) in Schrödl, Wägele & Willan (2001) and in Grande et al. (2004). Bouchet & Rocroi (2005) rejected the name Anthobranchia on the grounds that it included also Onchidium at the time of original publication. Opinions welcome on which name to be used.  [details]
