Felimare is a genus of sea slugs, dorid nudibranchs, shell-less marine gastropod molluscs in the subfamily Miamirinae of the family Chromodorididae.

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.

Species

;Species brought into synonymy:

  • Felimare ghiselini (Bertsch, 1978): synonym of Felimare californiensis (Bergh, 1879)
  • Felimare midatlantica (Gosliner, 1990): synonym of Felimare tricolor (Cantraine, 1835)
  • Felimare verdensis (Ortea, Valdés & García-Gómez, 1996): synonym of Felimare tema (Edmunds, 1981)
