Felimare is a genus of sea slugs, dorid nudibranchs, shell-less marine gastropod molluscs in the subfamily Miamirinae of the family Chromodorididae.[1]
Taxonomic history
Felimare was described by Eveline & Ernst Marcus in 1967 but treated as a synonym of Hypselodoris until 2012 when it was brought back into use for an eastern Pacific, Atlantic and Mediterranean clade revealed by molecular (DNA) techniques.[2]
Since then it has been somewhat controversial genus, as the 2012 molecular analysis did not take any morphological characteristics into clarification, either external or internal, resulting in little to no diagnostic material to define the genus. In 2025, several of the smaller Felimare species were investigated using both molecular phylogenetic analysis and morphological analysis, and subsequently moved into a new genus, Neptunazurea[3].
