Catriona (gastropod)

Catriona is a genus of sea slugs, aeolid nudibranchs, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Trinchesiidae.[1] All species were transferred to Tenellia as a result of a DNA phylogeny study in 2016.[2] It was reinstated in 2017 on the basis of DNA and morphological criteria.[3]
