Aeolidioidea is a superfamily of sea slugs, the aeolid nudibranchs. They are marine gastropod molluscs in the suborder Cladobranchia.[1]
Taxonomy

As of 2019, the superfamily Aeolidioidea consisted of the following families:[1]

Aeolidiidae Gray, 1827
Babakinidae Roller, 1973
Facelinidae Bergh, 1889
Flabellinopsidae Korshunova, Martynov, Bakken, Evertsen, Fletcher, Mudianta, Saito, Lundin, Schrödl & Picton, 2017
Glaucidae Gray, 1827
Notaeolidiidae Eliot, 1910
Piseinotecidae Edmunds, 1970
Pleurolidiidae Burn, 1966

Synonyms of families within this superfamily include:

Caloriidae (accepted as Facelinidae)
Cratenidae (accepted as Facelinidae)
Favorinidae (accepted as Facelinidae)
Myrrhinidae (accepted as Facelinidae)
Phidianidae (accepted as Facelinidae)
Phyllodesmiidae (accepted as Facelinidae)
Protaeolidiellidae (accepted as Pleurolidiidae)
Spurillidae (accepted as Aeolidiidae)

Gosliner et al. (2007) elevated the subfamily Babakininae, which was within Facelinidae, to the family level, as Babakinidae.[2]
