The Myrrhinidae is a family of aeolid nudibranchs. They are marine gastropod molluscs.MolluscaBase eds. (2022). MolluscaBase. Myrrhinidae Bergh, 1905. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species on 2022-10-09.
Taxonomy DNA studies found the Facelinidae to be polyphyletic and this family was brought back into use to partially resolve that situation.
According to Korshunova and colleagues (2025), the following genera are recognised in the family Myrrhinidae: Dondice Er. Marcus, 1958 Godiva Macnae, 1954 Hermissenda Bergh, 1879 Nanuca Er. Marcus, 1957 Nemesignis Furfaro & Mariottini, 2021 Phyllodesmium Ehrenberg, 1831
