History of the taxonomy
Flabellina islandica was originally described as Coryphella islandica by Nils Hjalmar Odhner in 1937.
M. C. Miller (1971)[1] assigned this species to a new genus Paracoryphella within a new family Paracoryphellidae.
Gosliner & Kuzirian (1990)[2] synonymized Paracoryphella with Flabellina.
