Classification
The following families are recognised in the superfamily Doridoxoidea:[1][3]
- Family Doridomorphidae Er. Marcus & Ev. Marcus, 1960
- Family Doridoxidae Bergh, 1899
- Family Heterodorididae Verrill & Emerton, 1882
A 2020 molecular analysis by Korshunova and Martynov recovered the following phylogenetic tree, where Doridomorpha, Doridoxa, and Heterodoris form a clade sister to the family Arminidae:[3]
