Occidenthella is a genus of sea slugs, specifically aeolid nudibranchs, in the family Flabellinidae.[4] The only described species is Occidenthella athadona, a combination named in 2017.[lower-alpha 1] It was originally described as Coryphella athadona in 1875.[2] The genus name Occidenthella, from occidens, meaning "west" in Latin, refers to its distribution in the Western Pacific Ocean.[1][3][5]
In the 2017 publication, it was placed in the reinstated family Coryphellidae.[6]
