'''Aglajidae''' is a [family](/source/Family_(taxonomy)) of often colorful, medium-sized, [sea slug](/source/sea_slug)s, [marine](/source/marine_(ocean)) [opisthobranch](/source/opisthobranch) [gastropod](/source/gastropod) [mollusk](/source/mollusk)s. These are not [nudibranch](/source/nudibranch)s; instead they are headshield slugs, in the [clade](/source/clade) [Cephalaspidea](/source/Cephalaspidea).<ref name="WoRMS">Bouchet, P. (2012). Aglajidae. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=22981 on 2012-06-16</ref>

==Note on the authority and dates==
Family names such as this one, Aglajidae [Pilsbry](/source/Henry_Augustus_Pilsbry), 1895 (1847), that have two dates (the second one in parentheses) are those names which are ruled by Article 40(2) of the [ICZN Code](/source/ICZN_Code). "If ... a family-group name was replaced before 1961 because of the synonymy of the type genus, the replacement name is to be maintained if it is in prevailing usage. A name maintained by virtue of this Article retains its own author [and date, the first date cited] but takes the priority of the replaced name [the date cited in parentheses, here alluding to Doridiinae Gray, 1847] <ref name="WoRMS" />
