Felimida is a genus of sea slugs, dorid nudibranchs, shell-less marine gastropod mollusks in the family Chromodorididae.[2]

Taxonomic history

Many of the species currently included in the genus Felimida were previously contained in the large genus Chromodoris until a revision of the family Chromodorididae in 2012 demonstrated that the name Chromodoris should be used for a smaller group of species.[3][4]
