The Chromodorididae, or chromodorids, are a taxonomic family of colorful, sea slugs; dorid nudibranchs, marine gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Doridoidea. “Chromodorid nudibranchs are among the most gorgeously colored of all animals.”〔Edmunds M (1981) Opishtobranchiate Mollusca from Ghana: Chromodorididae. Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 71: 175–201.〕 The over 360 described species are primarily found in tropical and subtropical waters, as members of coral reef communities, specifically associated with their sponge prey. The chromodorids are the most speciose family of opisthobranchs.〔Johnson R.F. & Gosliner T.M. (2012) ''Traditional taxonomic groupings mask evolutionary history: A molecular phylogeny and new classification of the chromodorid nudibranchs.'' PLoS ONE 7(4): e33479 http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0033479〕 They range in size from <1mm to over 30 cm, although most species are approximately 2-3 cm in size. 〔Gosliner, T.M., Behrens, D.W. & A. Valdes (2008) Indo-Pacific Nudibranchs and Sea Slugs: A field guide to the World's most diverse fauna. Sea Challengers Natural History Books and the California Academy of Sciences.〕〔Bouchet, P. (2011). Chromodorididae. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=23003 on 2011-04-05〕 Although, they have a worldwide distribution, most species are found in the Indo-Pacific region. A scientific paper published in 2007, found the most widespread chromodorid genera, (''Mexichromis'', ''Chromodoris'', ''Glossodoris'' and ''Hypselodoris'') to be paraphyletic or polyphyletic.〔Turner LM, Wilson NG (2008) Polyphyly across oceans: a molecular phylogeny of the Chromodorididae (Mollusca, Nudibranchia). Zoologica Scripta 37: 23–42.〕 The family Cadlinidae Bergh, 1891 has been considered a synonym of the Chromodorididae. Research by R.F. Johnson in 2011 〔Johnson R.F. (2011) ''Breaking family ties: taxon sampling and molecular phylogeny of chromodorid nudibranchs (Mollusca, Gastropoda)''. Zoologica Scripta 40(2): 137-157〕 has shown that ''Cadlina'' does not belong to the family Chromodorididae. She has therefore brought back the name Cadlinidae from synonymy with ''Chromodorididae''. The chromodorid nudibranchs without ''Cadlina'' are now monophyletic and turn out to be a possible sister to the family Actinocyclidae. ''Cadlina'' and ''Aldisa'' are the only two genera currently classified in the Cadlinidae. A comprehensive phylogeny of the chromodorid nudibranchs found every one of the 14 traditional chromodorid genera were either non-monophyletic, or rendered another genus paraphyletic. Additionally, both the monotypic genera ''Verconia'' and ''Diversidoris'' are nested within clades. The authors presented a new classification of the chromodorid nudibranchs, which used molecular data to untangle evolutionary relationships and at the same time retains a historical connection to traditional systematics by using generic names attached to type species as clade names.〔 Johnson R.F. & Gosliner T.M. (2012) ''Traditional taxonomic groupings mask evolutionary history: A molecular phylogeny and new classification of the chromodorid nudibranchs.'' PLoS ONE 7(4): e33479〕 All Chromodorid nudibranchs feed on sponges. ==Genera== Genera within the family Chromodorididae include:〔Bouchet, P. (2011). Chromodorididae.
