Doriopsilla
''Doriopsilla'' is a genus of sea slugs, dorid nudibranchs, shell-less marine gastropod molluscs in the family Dendrodorididae.Valdés Á. & Gosliner T.M. (1999). ''Phylogeny of the radula-less dorids (Mollusca, Nudibranchia), with the description of a new genus and a new family''. Zoologica Scripta 28: 315-360 Description ''Doriopsilla'' and ''Dendrodoris'' are genera which have frequently been confused, partly because both lack a radula. They feed by dissolving their sponge food externally, using enzymes, and then ingesting sponge cells without the sponge skeleton. They share this loss of the radula and method of feeding with the Phyllidiidae but look more like other Dorid nudibranchs in having a rosette of gills surrounding a dorsal anus, whilst Phyllidiidae have the gills located beneath the edge of the mantle. Species Species so far described in this genus include:Bouchet, P.; Gofas, S. (2015)''Doriopsilla'' Bergh, 1880.In: MolluscaBase (2016). Accessed through: World Regi ...
