Coryphella insolita is a species of sea slug, an aolid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Flabellinidae.[3]

Ekimova et al. (2026) placed it within Coryphella provisionally based upon morphological analysis, believing molecular data is needed to confirm or otherwise clarify its placement[3].

Distribution

This species occurs in the Strait of Gibraltar and Spain.[4]
