Onchidorididae
The family Onchidorididae includes small, flattened species that superficially resemble chryptobranch dorids. However, genetically they fall closer to the Goniodorididae. They also resemble that family in rhinophore structure. They feed on encrusting bryozoans. Only one species, in the genus Knoutsodonta, is known from Hawaii.
