Heterodoris antipodes n.sp. is described from a single specimen trawled at 1760-1800 m on the slope of the Tasman Basin west of New Zealand's South Island. Diagnostic features exist in body shape and colour, the gut, and the reproductive system. The genus was previously known only from the North Atlantic. Heterodorididae Verrill & Emerton in Verrill is reduced to a subfamily of Arminidae Iredale & O'Donoghue.
