“…The shape of the inner lateral teeth is also shared in Onchidoridoidea families, with hook-shaped inner lateral teeth, with the exception of Akiodorididae (Millen & Martynov, 2005;Hallas & Gosliner, 2015). Moreover, the spicules show a common pattern in families Goniodorididae and Onchidorididae, having overlapped sheets of spicules in the mantle and the tubercles are supported by spicule mounds (Penney et al, 2018;Paz-Sedano et al, 2021). Regarding the family Goniodorididae, the spicule pattern has been studied in species Okenia rosacea and Lophodoris danielsseni, in addition to the specimens of Goniodoris nodosa and Goniodoridella savignyi here included (Penney et al, 2018;Paz-Sedano et al, 2021).…”

“…Goniodoris and Lophodoris lack dorsal or lateral papillae, the rhinophores are lamellated and have several gill branches around the anus and the radular formula is N × 1.1.0.1.1 (Table 1; Fig. 8) (Friele & Hansen, 1876;Wägele & Cervera, 2001;Ekimova et al, 2019;Paz-Sedano et al, 2021). However, only Lophodoris has long, strong spicules, and a dorsal crest (Table 1; Fig.…”

“…We describe the detailed anatomy of this specimen since specimens of T. fusca are not available anywhere. Specimens belonging to Lophodoris danielsseni (Friele & Hansen, 1876) were recently studied by some of us, and therefore, we have not included them in the present study to avoid redundancy (Paz-Sedano et al, 2021). Specimens belonging to the monotypic genus of Spahria, Spahria minima Risbec, 1928, were not available anywhere.…”

“…This approach of morphological analysis using digital techniques has been termed as morphomics (Chughtai et al, 2016;Ziegler et al, 2018). The use of microcomputed tomography has several advantages against classic dissections of specimens: (1) It allows to keep the integrity of specimens under study; (2) it could facilitate the systematic re-examination of rare and valuable specimens since natural history museums would allow to study exclusive type material of poorly described but delicate specimens; (3) it allows a comprehensive analysis of external and internal features in their natural context, ensuring that structures were not affected by the invasiveness of the traditionally conducted dissections (Candás et al, 2016;Moles et al, 2017;Penney et al, 2018;Ziegler et al, 2018;Marcondes Machado et al, 2019;Schillo et al, 2019;Paz-Sedano et al, 2021).…”

Detailed knowledge of the anatomy of the species is an essential element in taxonomic studies, since it allows the comparison and differentiation of separate groups of taxa. It becomes especially important when considering type species, as the subsequent identification of the species that compose the taxa is based on its characteristics, considered common in the group. However, despite its relevance, there are still numerous species without detailed descriptions, being especially significant among invertebrates. The family Goniodorididae is a little-known group of nudibranchs that includes eight recognized genera: Okenia, Goniodoris, Ancula, Lophodoris, Spahria, Trapania, Goniodoridella and Murphydoris. Several of their species are not completely described, including type species, and the systematics of the family is still unclear. Here we study in detail the external morphology and internal anatomy of the type species of five of the eight Goniodorididae genera using microcomputed tomography and scanning electron microscopy. We include the species Okenia elegans, Goniodoris nodosa, Ancula gibbosa, Goniodoridella savignyi and Murphydoris singaporensis as well as one species of Trapania, T. graeffei. We describe for the first time the detailed internal anatomy of the type species Goniodoridella savignyi. The diagnostic features of each genus are compared, and a preliminary framework is shown to clarify their systematics and identifications.

Goniodoris is the third most diverse genus of the nudibranch family Goniodorididae. The genus has undergone several taxonomic changes, with c. one-third of the recognized species of Goniodoris having been synonymized (most of these are junior synonyms of genera from other families). In addition, Goniodoris includes other synonymized genera within it, such as Pelagella, which was erected for Doris pareti. This species was synonymized with Goniodoris castanea and the genus Pelagella went almost unnoticed. In the present study, we investigate the systematics of the genus Goniodoris by examining specimens of G. castanea from England and Spain, G. joubini from Hawaii and six undescribed Goniodoris species from Australia, the Philippines and Mozambique. The morphology of the new species is studied using dissections of the internal organs and scanning electron micrographs of the radulae, labial cuticles and the penis. We also carried out phylogenetic analyses using partial DNA sequences of mitochondrial and nuclear genes. These analyses show that the type species of Goniodoris, G. nodosa, is not a member of the clade constituted by the focal species of our study; the valid name for this clade is Pelagella. Six new species of Pelagella, P. albopunctata n. sp., P. balanoyensis n. sp., P. longicornis n. sp., P. scottjohnsoni n. sp., P. rubrobranchiata n. sp. and P. vitrea n. sp., are described.
