MOLECULAR phylogeny , *ANNELIDA , *MITOCHONDRIA - Abstract
Nereididae is one of Annelida's most diverse and well-studied families; despite this, only recently have molecular approaches been used to access phylogenetic hypotheses within the family. At least two nereidid groups can be identified based on mitochondrial gene order; however, this type of molecular information is not available for most taxa, and relationships of subfamilies are still poorly understood. In the present study, we used nuclear and mitochondrial markers to evaluate relationships within Nereididae and verified hypotheses on subfamilies delineation and relationship. Our results suggest the paraphyletic status of Gymnonereidinae and Nereidinae, as well as some genera within these subfamilies. Despite this, a revision of these subfamilies delineation and diagnoses was presented to match current phylogenetic understanding of the group. We suggest reverting to the original definition of Gymnonereidinae to include only the genera originally proposed by Banse in 1977. Our results also support monophyly of a large group that can be defined by mitochondrial gene order. This group includes most taxa identified as Nereidinae, and therefore, we suggest that this feature should be used as diagnostic of the subfamily. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The genus Leocrates is currently made up of 11 nominal species, of which Leocrates chinensis Kinberg, 1866 is the type species. Kinberg's original description is brief, and the diagnostic morphological characters are poorly defined. Therefore, numerous subsequent records in different world regions have been considered doubtful. Numerous specimens of Leocrates collected by SCUBA diving in various locations of Robinson Crusoe Island (33°37'S, 78°51'W) in the Juan Fernández Archipelago, between 4 and 10 m depth were examined and determined as a new species herein named Leocrates ernstehlersi n. sp. It is characterized by the size of anterior and posterior eyes, the median chaetigers with scarce notochaetae and neurochaetae per bundle; neurochaetal blades are 4-14 times longer than wide and neuracicular lobes slightly longer than wide. A key to identifying species of Leocrates having large anterior eyes and anterior eyes/prostomial width ratio between 1/4 to 1/8 is also included. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

complete mitogenome ,phyllodocida ,polynoidae ,eunoe nodosa ,scale worm ,Genetics ,QH426-470 - Abstract
To increase the mitogenome data available for robust phylogeny, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial DNA of the scale worm Eunoe nodosa (Sars, 1861) in the family Polynoidae of the order Phyllodocida. The complete mitogenome has 15,366 bp and has 28.9% A, 13.2% C, 19.0% G, and 38.8% T. Using MITOS and tRNAscan-SE, we identified the 13 typical protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a non-coding region. Phylogenomic analysis based on 27 in-group taxa belonging to five families of the subclass Errantia show congruence with the published phylogenetic relationship within the Polynoidae, in which E. nodosa lies in the clade of shallow water species.

Abstract Background The ground pattern underlying the nervous system of the last common ancestor in annelids was long thought to be settled, consisting of a dorsal brain, circumoesophageal connectives and a subepithelial, ladder-like ventral nerve cord with segmental ganglia connected by paired connectives. With the advent of immunocytochemical stainings and confocal laser scanning microscopy, it becomes evident that its architecture is extremely diverse, which makes the reconstruction of a ground pattern in annelida challenging. Whereas the nervous systems of many different families has already been described, only very few studies looked at the diversity of nervous systems within such clades to give a closer estimate on how plastic the annelid nervous system really is. So far, little is known on syllid nervous system architecture, one of the largest and most diverse groups of marine annelids. Results The position of the brain, the circumoesophageal connectives, the stomatogastric nervous system, the longitudinal nerves that traverse each segment and the innervation of appendages are relatively uniform within the clade. Both the number of connectives within the ventral nerve cord and the number of segmental nerves, which in earlier studies were used to infer phylogenetic relationships and to reconstruct an annelid ground pattern, are highly diverse and differ between genera or even within a given genus. Differences in the distribution of somata of the brain, the nuchal innervation and its associated cell bodies were found between Syllinae and Exogoninae and may be subfamily-specific. Conclusions The nervous system morphology of syllids very likely depends on the taxon-specific ecological requirements. Thus, it is not surprising that in a clade, which occupies such diverse niches as the Annelida, we find similar patterns in phylogenetically widely separated species in similar niches and a high degree of modularity within a family. Only standardized protocols and staining methods can lead to comparable results, but so far different approaches have been taken to describe annelid nervous systems, making homologization of certain structures difficult. This study provides the first thorough description of the nervous system in the family Syllidae, allowing more detailed comparisons between annelid families in the future.

Syllis Savigny in Lamarck, 1818, the type genus of Syllidae, is the largest and most diverse within the family. This genus presents many taxonomic, biogeographic, and phylogenetic problems due mainly to the lack of molecular data and morphological synapomorphies for many of the species, but also due to poor or inadequate descriptions. In order to improve the knowledge of the genus, we have undertaken a morphological revision of Australian species, based on type material and material collected over years by the Australian Museum. This is the third paper dealing with this family. Eighteen species are herein described, of which five are new and twelve are redescriptions of already known species, with four new combinations: Syllis imajimai, n. sp.; S. narranuk, n. sp.; S. noolinga, n. sp.; S. similisunzima, n. sp.; S. thylacine, n. sp.; S. busseltonensis (Hartmann-Schröder, 1982) n. comb.; S. patriciae (Hartmann-Schröder, 1981) n. comb.; S. pharobroomensis (Hartmann-Schröder, 1979) n. comb., S. pharynxcircunfusata (Hartmann-Schröder, 1979) n. comb, S. armillaris (O.

A variety of nereidid species have been reported from the South China Sea, although little is known about the deep-sea species in this area. Recently, two specimens belonging to a novel nereidid polychaete were collected from a sedimentary habitat during an environmental survey to a deep-sea basin where cold seeps occur. This new species, Nereis tricirratasp. nov., is described herein, based on morphological and molecular analyses. The most noteworthy feature is the absence of eyes on the prostomium; it can be distinguished from other eyeless Nereis species by the arrangement of conical paragnaths on the pharynx, the nature of homogomph falcigers and the shape of notopodial lobes in posterior chaetigers. The reconstructed phylogenetic tree, using concatenated sequences of mtCOI, 16S, and 18S rRNA, showed that all Nereis species included in this study form a monophyletic clade with full support. The mtCOI-based interspecific comparisons revealed a high genetic divergence (23.1%–37.3% K2P) from four-eyed Nereis species with the available sequences. This is the first record of an eyeless Nereis species in the South China Sea.

12. An oral brush of cilia in the feeding larvae of Micronephtys cornuta (Annelida, Nephtyidae).

Pernet, Bruno
- Abstract
Larvae of many phyllodocidan annelids are planktotrophic, but the feeding mechanisms of larvae in this diverse clade are poorly known. Many larvae belonging to one large clade of phyllodocidans, Aphroditiformia, bear a bundle of long cilia attached to the left side of the prototroch, the oral brush, which they use in feeding. In 1936, D.P. Wilson observed that trochophore larvae of Nephtys hombergi, a member of the phyllodocidan family Nephtyidae, bore a strikingly similar bundle of long cilia on the left side of the body. Since Wilson's observation, numerous descriptions of nephtyid larvae have been published, but none remark on the presence of an oral brush. Here I show that metatrochophore I and II larvae of Micronephtys cornuta bear an oral brush, but that it is lost in the transition to the nectochaete stage, during which the larval mouth and foregut are also being remodeled to function in benthic feeding by juveniles. That an oral brush is clearly present in at least some larval stages of two genera suggests that oral brushes may be widespread in the feeding larvae of nephtyids, but have simply been overlooked for more than 80 years. Additional work is needed to make inferences on the evolutionary history of the oral brush in phyllodocidan annelids, and to distinguish among several hypotheses on the function of this peculiar group of cilia in larval feeding.

Anterior horns conical, arising medially from ventral tentacular cirri (Figs 3D–G, 5A). Upper and lower lips bearing conical papillae with a single sensory cilium distally (Figs 3E–G, 4A). Palps very long, up to 250 µm, stout, tapering, ventrolateral to tentaculophores (Figs 2A, D–G, 3D–E, G, 5A). Segment 2 with first pair of bulbous elytrophores, biramous parapodia, ventral buccal cirri lateral to mouth, longer than dorsal tentacular cirri (Figs 3D–G, 5A), ventral cirri from segment 3 onwards smaller than buccal cirri (Fig. 4A).

Type locality The Calanques, near Marseille, Jarre Cave (Fig. 1C). Distribution The Calanques, near Marseille, Jarre and 3PP marine caves. Ecology Inhabits the upper layer of soft sediments in the middle and deep parts of marine caves at a depth of 19– 25 m. The sediment type in Jarre Cave was defined as silty sand in the deep part and sandy silt in the middle part, and in 3PP Cave as clayey silt in both deep and middle parts (Table 2). Molecular data The trees obtained with the 18S rRNA and 28S rRNA concatenated dataset with BI (Fig. 6) and ML analyses (Supp. file 1) have similar topology. Analysed specimens of Laubierpholoe massiliana sp. nov. form a highly supported clade within Laubierpholoe (PP = 1, B = 100); their sequences are identical despite their origin from two different caves. Laubierpholoe (PP = 1, B = 97), Pholoe (PP = 1, B = 98) and Pholoinae (PP = 1, B = 100) are well-supported groups within Sigalionidae. Laubierpholoe includes L. massiliana sp. nov. and all other species present in GenBank (L. swedmarki and undescribed species A, B and C); it forms a sister group with Pholoe. The relationships of species of Laubierpholoe are different in BI and ML analyses and the subclades have low support. In the BI tree, L. massiliana sp. nov. is in a sister group with Laubierpholoe sp. C, and together they form a sister group with Laubierpholoe sp. A, Laubierpholoe sp. B and L. swedmarki; Laubierpholoe sp. B and L. swedmarki form a clade which is a sister group with Laubierpholoe sp. A. In the ML tree, L. massiliana sp. nov. is in a sister group with the clade comprising Laubierpholoe sp. B and Laubierpholoe sp. C, and together they form a sister group with the clade L. swedmarki – Laubierpholoe sp. A. Key to species of Laubierpholoe 1.

To increase the mitogenome data available for robust phylogeny, we sequenced the complete mitochondrial DNA of the scale worm Eunoe nodosa (Sars, 1861) in the family Polynoidae of the order Phyllodocida. The complete mitogenome has 15,366 bp and has 28.9% A, 13.2% C, 19.0% G, and 38.8% T. Using MITOS and tRNAscan-SE, we identified the 13 typical protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and a non-coding region. Phylogenomic analysis based on 27 in-group taxa belonging to five families of the subclass Errantia show congruence with the published phylogenetic relationship within the Polynoidae, in which E. nodosa lies in the clade of shallow water species.

A remarkable new genus and species of scale worm (Annelida: Polynoidae) was found on the bottom sediments of an anchialine cave on the island of Mallorca (Balearic Islands, western Mediterranean). Specimens reach up to 2 cm long, lack eyes and body pigmentation except for a few scattered minute speckles and show enlarged parapodia and sensorial appendages. A red brain is visible through the translucent tegument. Morphological features resemble those of Eulagiscinae, currently comprising eight species in three genera. Phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences are not conclusive on the position of the new taxon but affinity to Eulagiscinae is not ruled out, particularly when taxa with missing data or non-homologous insertion sites are excluded from the analyses. Pollentia perezi gen. & sp. nov. is characterized by a unique set of morphological features: 13 pairs of dorsal elytra; a single type of notochaetae (stout, with spinous rows and pointed tip); and two types of neurochaetae (superior flattened, spinous with tridentate tip; inferior shorter and thinner, lanceolate and pectinate). Some characteristics, such as the long parapodial appendages and swimming habits, are shared with other cave scale worms. However, the new taxon is not closely related to the other two known cave-dwelling polynoids., M.C. was funded by the Ramón y Cajal programme (RYC-2016-20799) funded by Spanish Ministerio de Economía, Industria y Competitividad (MINECO), Agencia Estatal de Investigación, Govern de les Illes Balears and the European Social Fund.

The widely distributed polychaete family Polynoidae Kinberg, 1856 is found across all oceans and from shallow to deep waters, including deep-sea hydrothermal vents and hydrocarbon seeps. Taxa inhabiting chemosynthesis-based ecosystems are often endemic to those specific habitats commonly targeted by deep-sea mining, and understanding their species diversity is essential for shaping conservation plans. Here, we report two previously undescribed scale-worms in the genus Branchinotogluma Pettibone, 1985 from the Off Hatsushima hydrocarbon seep of Sagami Bay and the Nikko Seamount hydrothermal vent on the Izu-Ogasawara Arc, and describe them as B. nikkoensis sp. nov. and B. sagamiensis sp. nov. Branchinotogluma nikkoensis sp. nov. is distinguished from the known species by the following characters: i) ventral segmental lamellae near ventral bases of neuropodia present on segments 13–17, ii) dorsal tentacular cirri being longer than ventral tentacular cirri, iii) absence of dorsal tubercles. Branchinotogluma sagamiensis sp. nov. can be differentiated from other congeners by i) 20 segments, ii) dorsal tentacular cirri being longer than ventral tentacular cirri, iii) ventral segmental lamellae near ventral bases of neuropodia present on segments 13–18, and iv) thin median antennae. The two new species are distinct in both morphology and four gene sequences from the only two species previously known from Japan including Branchinotogluma japonicus (Miura & Hashimoto, 1991) and B. elytropapillata Zhang, Chen & Qiu, 2018, originally described from Kaikata Seamount vent on the Izu-Ogasawara Arc and Okinawa Trough, respectively

Micropodarke fujianensis n. sp. (Figures 1–4, Tables 1–3) ZooBank URL: lsid:zoobank.org:act: 0FC2C74E-0B76-4142-8C3C-3991B7648D56 Type material. Holotype, XMU-Pol-2021-227, anterior fragment with 27 chaetigers, Dongshan, Fujian, 23°32'52.06"N, 117°26'40.78"E, subtidal, 33.9 m, sandy, 25 May 2021. Paratype #1, MBM286065, posterior fragment, 20 chaetigers, Dongshan, Fujian, 23°32'52.06"N, 117°26'40.78"E, subtidal, 30.8 m, sandy, 25 May 2021; Paratype #2, XMU-Pol-2021-229, complete, 34 chaetigers, Dongshan, Fujian, 23°34'31.45"N, 117°34'31.10"E, subtidal, 33.0 m, coarse sandy, 24 May 2021. Diagnosis. Presence of a pair of lateral antennae, a pair of biarticulated palps, distally knobbed segmental ventral adhesive papillae, around 20 papillae on anterior edge of pharynx. Median neurochaetae from middle segments without basally situated long teeth (“spurs”). Description. Holotype (XMU-Pol-2021-227) incomplete, anterior fragment with 27 chaetigers, body width without parapodia around 0.3 mm (Figure 2). Body long and thin. Prostomium rounded quadrangular, width twice length (Figure 2A). Eyes two pairs, located in posterior of prostomium, brown, similar in size; anterior pair kidneyshaped, posterior pair rounded (Figure 2A). Palps biarticulated. Palpophores cylindrical, similar in diameter with base of palpostyle; thin, tapered (Figure 2A, C). Lateral antennae thinner and slightly shorter than palps, tapered. Facial tubercle absent (Figure 2C). Pharynx without jaws or teeth, anterior edge with a ring of around 20 papillae (Figure 2C). Tentacular cirri 3 pairs, longest one reaching to chaetiger 5-6 (Figure 2A). Parapodia sub-biramous. Notoacicula single, slightly curved, extending to notopodial cirrophore; Neuroacicula single, straight, blunt (Figure 3A, D). Neuropodial prechaetal lobe linguliform; postchaetal lobe semicircular, shorter than prechaetal lobe (Figure 3A). Notopodial cirri biarticulated, cirrophore stout, short, cirrostyle as long as body width, tip moniliform, extending beyond chaetal tips. Neuropodial cirri digitiform, without cirrophores, distally slender, tip not extended beyond chaetal lobe (Figure 3A). Adhesive papillae rounded, situated postero-laterally to parapodia (Figure 2B). Notochaetae absent; neurochaetae 13–21 heterogomph falcigers per bundle, blades unidentate, length/width ratio from 6 to 13, with 5-7 longer bladed falcigers extending from neuroacicula, and 6-7 shorter bladed falcigers from both supra- and sub-neuroacicula in middle neuropodia (Figure 3 A-D). Blades of median neurochaetae longer than dorsal and ventral ones (Figure 3A), basally situated long teeth (“spurs”) absent (Figure 3B, C, D). Variation. The specimen of Paratype #1 has only posterior 20 chaeitgers, with 15-17 falcigers in middle chaetigers; the specimen of Paratype #2 with 34 chaetigers, with 13-14 falcigers in middle chaetigers. Due to the incomplete and small-sized specimens, no other apparent variations could be noted between the two type specimens. Remarks. All other Micropodarke species were characterized by bearing one to several basally situated long teeth (“spurs”) in median neurochaetal blades, therefore this morphological character was included in the previous diagnosis of the genus Micropodarke (Pleijel & Rouse 2005; Rizzo & Salazar-Vallejo 2014). M. fujianensis n. sp., however, differs from all described species in that its neurochaetae do not bear basal long teeth (Figure 3 B-D, G-I). In addition, M. fujianensis n. sp. differs from other Micropodarke species in a number of morphological characters. For instance, it differs from M. dubia and M. cf. dubia by having two pairs of smaller (vs. larger) eyes (Hessle 1925; Figure 2A, D), one (vs. 1-2) notoacicula (Uchida 2004; Figure 3A, D). It differs from M. pleijeli by having about 20 (vs. about 30) papillae on the frontal edge of the pharynx, and bearing two pairs of eyes (vs. bearing no eyes) (Figure 2A, C; Rizzo & Salazar-Vallejo 2014). It differs from M. trilobata by having thin and tapered (vs. thick and blunt) antennae, thin (vs. medially swollen) palpostyles, one (vs. 2) notoacicula and one (vs. 2) neuroacicula (Figure 2A; Hartmann-Schröder 1983). Etymology. The specific epithet fujianensis refers to the type locality, Fujian Province. Habitat. Subtidal sandy and coarse sandy sediment. Distribution. Currently only known from coastal waters of Dongshan, Fujian, China. Genetic distances. Table 3 showed the average K2P genetic distances among the known Micropodarke species. COI showed higher average K2P genetic distances than 16S rRNA and the other three gene markers. The average interspecific distances ranged from 14.6% (Micropodarke sp. A & M. cf. dubia) to 29.4% (Micropodarke sp. A & Micropodarke sp. B) for COI (523 bp), from 10.7% (M. cf. dubia & M. fujianensis n. sp.) to 16.2% (Micropodarke sp. A & M. fujianensis n. sp.) for 16S rRNA (379 bp), from 0.2% (Micropodarke sp. A & M. cf. dubia) to 1.2% (Micropodarke sp. A & M. fujianensis n. sp.) for 28S rRNA (736 bp). For histone H3 (281 bp), the K2P distance was 1.1% between M. cf. dubia & M. fujianensis n. sp.; while it was 0 for 18S rRNA (934 bp) among Micropodarke sp. A, M. cf. dubia, and M. fujianensis n. sp. The average intraspecific K2P genetic distances of M. fujianensis n. sp. (0.8% for COI, 0.4% for 16S rRNA, 0 for 18S rRNA, 28S rRNA, and histone H3), M. cf. dubia (0.2% for COI, 0.4% for 16S rRNA, 0 for 18S rRNA and histone H3, and 0.1% for 28S rRNA), and Micropodarke sp. B (0.1% for COI) are much smaller than the respective interspecific distances among Micropodarke species here listed in Table 2. Phylogenetic trees. Phylogenetic tree reconstructed based on COI gene sequences revealed that, among the four distinct species, Micropodarke fujianensis n. sp. (Dongshan) was sister to Micropodarke sp. B (British Columbia & Washington); together, they were sister to a clade consisting of Micropodarke sp. A (Lifou) and M. cf. dubia (Daya Bay) (Figure 4A). The same sister relationship between Micropodarke sp. A (Lifou) and M. cf. dubia (Daya Bay) was also found in the trees based on 16S rRNA and 28S rRNA gene sequences (Figure 4B, D). In the tree based on 18S rRNA gene sequences (Figure 4C), all the 934-bp sequences were identical, therefore the relationships among Micropodarke fujianensis n. sp. (Dongshan), M. cf. dubia (Daya Bay), and Micropodarke sp. A (Lifou) were undistinguishable. In the tree based on 28S rRNA gene sequences (Figure 4D), Micropodarke sp. A (Lifou) and M. cf. dubia (Daya Bay) first formed a clade, and then it was sister to the clade of M. fujianensis n. sp. (Dongshan). The tree based on histone H3 gene sequences included only Micropodarke fujianensis n. sp. (Dongshan) and M. cf. dubia (Daya Bay), which formed two distinct clades., Published as part of Wang, Zhi, Yang, Deyuan, Cai, Jian-Wen Qiu Minggang, Deng, Yongzhi & Ke, Caihuan, 2023, Micropodarke fujianensis n. sp.

Japan, Ogasawara Islands, Chichijima Island, (27°05′39.7″N 142°11′42.4″E), light trap, coll. NJ by hand, 24 May 2015. Description: Holotype (NSMT-Pol H-901) 13,6 mm long, 62 chaetigers. Paratype 1 (NSMT-Pol P-902) 14,4 mm long, 62 chaetigers. Paratype 2 (incomplete) 11,2 mm long, 55 chaetigers (about 8–10 additional posterior chaetigers were used for molecular analyses; MNCN 16.01/17366). Paratype 3 cut in half and prepared for SEM (ZMUG 30258) (anterior part ca. 3,3 mm, ~21 chaetigers; posterior part 4,1 mm, ~26 chaetigers; overall around 7,4 mm and ~47 chaetigers). Body broad, elongated, dorsally arched (Fig. 3A). Dorsal surface of anterior segments with bunches of cilia (Figs 4A–C, 7E). Dorsal side covered at the sides with ovoid to round dorsal cirri, leaving an uncovered space in the middle along the anterior-posterior axis (Figs. 3A, C–D, 5A–F). From dorsal, parapodia are visible where not covered by dorsal cirri. Colour of in 70% ethanol preserved specimens white, eyes red, tips of many dorsal cirri bright yellow-orange (Figs. 3A–D, 5A–F). Prostomium rounded, with four eyes arranged in a rectangle (Figs. 3B, 5A–B, 6A). Two palps inserting ventrally, fused at the base. Two papillae at the anterior side of the base of the palps (ventral prostomial papillae in Figs. 6A–B). Antennae lost in holotype, antennophores of lateral antennae above the papillae, between the anterior eyes, median antennophore in the middle between the posterior eyes (Figs. 6A–B). Antennae of paratype 2 large and ovoid (Fig. 5A); no antennae preserved in other specimens. Two ovate projections emerging laterally from the prostomium, at the level between anterior and posterior eyes (Figs. 6A–B). Lateral projections as long as antennae but thinner and without antennophore. Nuchal organs long, sinuous, reaching parallelly until the 7 th chaetiger on the dorsal side (Figs. 3D, 4A), strongly ciliated and attached to the dorsal surface (Figs. 4B, C). Dorsally, two anterior extensions of the nuchal organs emerge (Figs. 3A–B, 5A–B, D–E, 6A–B). Nuchal extensions in shape and size similar to palps, with pointy tips. Lateral projections and nuchal extensions of paratype 2 smaller than in the other specimens (Fig. 5A). Two pairs of ovoid to balloon-like tentacular cirri. Dorsal cirri shaped the same way as tentacular cirri. Cirri of paratype 1 smaller than those of other specimens (Fig. 3A). Surface of dorsal cirri with a reticulate pattern. Dorsal cirri inserting alternately more dorsally and more ventrally on the side of each segment (Figs. 7A, D). Parapodia with distinct upper lobe and ventral cirrus ovoid in shape, slightly larger than dorsal lobe (Figs. 6C, 8C), between which bundles of chaetae emerge (Fig. 8C). Number of chaetae per bundle around 10–15 in the anterior part, increasing towards the mid-body. Chaetae compound, heterogomph falcigers (Figs. 8A–D). Bidentate blades with teeth similar in size and shape. Cutting edge with spines; basal spines short, spines in the middle of the edge long, exceeding the tip of the blade. Blades all similar in length (Figs. 6D, 8A–B). Two pointed acicula per parapodium. From the 11 th chaetiger until the end, parapodia strongly enlarged notopodium lobes with additional natatory simple chaetae (epigamic reproductive modifications) (Figs. 7C–D). Proventricle 6 to 7 segments long, beginning in chaetiger 5–7. Pharyngeal tooth and/or trepan not seen. Pygidium with two cirrophores (Fig. 7F). Distribution: Chichijima Island, Ogasawara Islands, Japan. Reproduction: All four specimens show strongly modified midbody-posterior parapodia with natatory chaetae (elongated simple notochaetae), indicating the individuals were in reproductive state at the time of sampling. This provides evidence for an epigamic reproduction in this species. Remarks: The characteristic ovoid, balloon like dorsal cirri with alternating insertion points are shared between all three species of Clavisyllis. The new species is larger than C. yongei (Watson 2009) and roughly as long as C. alternata with approximately the same number of segments (Aguado & San Martín 2008). Clavisyllis tenjini n. sp. also shares the shape of nuchal epaulettes with C. alternata, lacking however the unique and characteristic nuchal cirrus of the latter. Exclusive to the new species are the prominent nuchal extensions on the anterior end of the epaulettes, as well as lateral projections emerging from the sides of the prostomium. These morphological differences, together with the occurrence more than 4500 km far from the other Clavisyllis occurrences justify the designation to a new species. The presence of a pharyngeal tooth and/or trepan could not be assessed since the specimens were not dissected. There are currently very few Clavisyllis specimens available: one for C. alternata, one for C. yongei and four for C. tenjini n. sp. (one not complete, another prepared for SEM). The presence/absence of a pharyngeal tooth and/or a trepan would not influence the description of C. tenjini n. sp. as a new species. Hence, we preferred to keep the anterior end of the specimens with all its unique characteristics (lateral projections and dorsal nuchal extensions) not dissected.

Genus Clavisyllis Knox, 1957 Clavisyllis Knox, 1957: 493. Type species: Clavisyllis alternata Knox, 1957. Diagnosis: (modified from Aguado & San Martín 2008; Knox 1957; San Martín & Aguado 2022; Watson 2009): Macrofaunal species, body broad, subcylindrical. Palps fused at base, ventrally directed. Nuchal organs form two prominent, long, sinuous nuchal epaulettes and one additional single, digitiform nuchal cirrus (Clavisyllis alternata), or curved epaulettes with knob-like tips (Clavisyllis yongei), or two prominent, long, sinuous nuchal epaulettes with anterior extensions (Clavisyllis tenjini n. sp.). Prostomium with lateral projections in C. tenjini n. sp. Antennae, tentacular and dorsal cirri large, ovoid, inflated, with distinct cirrophores; ventral cirri ovoid. Dorsal cirri strongly alternating between lateral and dorsal segmental positions, to give the appearance of four longitudinal rows along the body. Parapodia uniramous with projecting upper lobe, 1–2 aciculae and compound heterogomph falcigers with blades having distinct bidentate tips and long spines. Pharynx and proventricle of similar length. Pharynx with single tooth or trepan of 12–13 teeth. Proventricle barrel-shaped. Member of Eusyllinae. Plesiomorphic mitochondrial gene order. Reproduction by epigamy (seen in C. tenjini n. sp.). Distribution: Australia: Great Barrier Reef, North Queensland; New Zealand: New Plymouth, North Island and Banks Pensinsula, South Island; Japan: Ogasawara Islands. Remarks: None of the previous authors were able to assign the genus to any subfamily of Syllidae (Aguado & San Martín 2008; Knox 1957; Watson 2009). To date, Clavisyllis has been included in a single phylogenetic analysis based on morphological data (Aguado & San Martín 2009).

The phylogenetic relationships of Syllidae have been analyzed in several studies during the last decades, resulting in highly congruent topologies. Most of the subfamilies were found to be monophyletic, while other groups (Eusyllinae and several genera) have been reorganized attending their phylogenetic relationships. However, there are still several enigmatic genera, which could not be assigned to any of the established subgroups. These enigmatic genera usually show a combination of characters indicating relationships with several different groups, and some show morphological traits unique to Syllidae. One of the most intriguing genera, still unclassified within Syllidae is Clavisyllis Knox. Herein, we provide a complete description of a new species Clavisyllis tenjini n. sp. from Japan. We sequence the complete mitochondrial genome, compare with the available data from other syllids, and perform a phylogenetic analysis of three genes (18S, 16S, COI), traditionally used in previous studies. Clavisyllis shows a unique combination of characters within Syllidae, such as nuchal lappets and large ovoid dorsal cirri. The new species has additional anterior appendages that have not been found in any other syllid. Our results show the genus is a member of Eusyllinae, closely related to Pionosyllis Malmgren. The mitochondrial gene order agrees with the considered plesiomorphic gene order in Annelida, which is present in all members of Eusyllinae investigated so far. Clavisyllis reproduces by epigamy, the reproductive mode of members of Eusyllinae. The present study contributes to the systematics of Syllidae, a complex group with a large number of species and striking reproductive modes.

Coral Bay, Ningaloo, 23°9′16.27″S 113°46′4.40″E, 26 July 2016, 1 specimen (WAM V11622). Description. Incomplete specimens with 15–61 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 3.0– 19.4 mm long and 0.6–1.0 mm wide; cream yellow or reddish brown in alcohol. Dark brown pigment present on prostomium and tentacular segments, thin dark brown bands present on few anterior chaetigers. Prostomium wider than long, with antero-medial incision. Eyes two pairs, equal size, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores tubular, palpostyles subconical. Antennae one pair, as long as palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest ones extending to chaetiger 8–16. Pharyngeal jaws reddish brown or translucent in small specimens, curved at tips, with nine teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths reddish black, present on maxillary ring only, arranged as follows: Area I= 0, Area II= 6–13 cones in an oblique oval, Area III= 8–14 cones in a circle, Area IV= 12–24 cones in a circle, Area V= 0, Area VI= 0 (1 rounded papilla in some specimens), Areas VII–VIII= 0 (Fig. 2A–B). Apodous segment as long as first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with digitiform dorsal and ventral ligules, dorsal ligules about half as long as ventral ligules in middle chaetigers and much smaller in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia in anterior chaetigers, nearer to distal edge of dorsal parapodia in posterior chaetigers, about five times longer than ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with digitiform ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and triangular postchaetal lobes extending to same level of acicular ligule tips. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, slightly longer than ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers (Fig. 2C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers in anterior chaetigers, sesquigomph falcigers from chaetiger 13–19 (Fig. 2D). Notopodial falcigerous blades long, slightly curved, bidentate (with a small distal tooth), with fine serrations, serrations longer towards tips.Neurochaetae present with heterogomph falcigers (Fig.2E) and homogomph spinigers (Fig. 2F) in dorsal fascicles; falcigerous blades long, slightly curved, bidentate with fine serrations, serrations longer towards tips. Neurochaetae also present with heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 2G) and falcigers (Fig. 2H) in ventral fascicles; falcigerous blades long, slightly curved, unidentate (without a small distal tooth), with fine serrations, serrations longer towards tips. All spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Acicula translucent. Remarks. Our specimens differ from Ceratonereis mirabilis from South Australia, Mozambique, Madagascar, Japan, and Brazil. Ceratonereis mirabilis from South Australia has more elongate conical paragnaths in some specimens, digitiform prechaetal lobes in dorsal neuropodial ligules, and heterogomoph spinigers in the dorsal fascicles of the neuropodia (Hutchings & Turvey 1982). Ceratonereis mirabilis from Mozambique and Madagascar has minutely papillated dorsum in posterior segments (Day 1967). Ceratonereis mirabilis from Japan has unidentate falcigers in noto- and neuropodia of some specimens (Imajima 1972). Ceratonereis mirabilis from Brazil has fewer teeth on each jaw (7) and heterogomph spinigers in the dorsal fascicles of the neuropodia (Conde-Vela 2021). The degree of variation in C. mirabilis is highly suggestive of a species complex. Assessing specimens using molecular and morphological evidence of atokes and epitokes across the oceans: Indian Ocean (Mozambique, Madagascar, and Western Australia), and Southern Ocean (South Australia), Pacific (Japan), and Atlantic (Brazil) will be required to establish the possible presence of additional species. Ceratonereis species from Western Australia, i.e., Ceratonereis (Ceratonereis) perkinsi Hartmann-Schröder, 1985; Ceratonereis singularis australis HartmannSchröder, 1985; Ceratonereis (Ceratonereis) longiceratophora Hartmann-Schröder, 1985; and Ceratonereis tentaculata Kinberg, 1865, differ from the present material. Ceratonereis perkinsi and C. singularis australis have unidentate falcigers in notopodia, instead of bidentate falcigers for C. mirabilis. Ceratonereis longiceratophora has only bidentate falcigers in ventral fascicles of neuropodia, instead of both unidentate and bidentate falcigers or only unidentate falcigers for C. mirabilis. Ceratonereis tentaculata has longer dorsal notopodial ligules than those of C. mirabilis. Distribution.

Apodous segment as long as first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with strongly reduced dorsal ligules from first chaetiger and conical ventral ligules. Dorsal cirri digitiform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, about twice longer than ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with conical ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and triangular postchaetal lobes extending to same level of acicular ligule tips. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, as long as ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers (Fig. 11C–E). Notochaetae present with homogomph falcigers from chaetiger 3, one for each notopodia.Notopodial falcigerous blades short, with terminal and three large lateral teeth in anterior chaetigers (Fig. 11F), two large lateral teeth and two smaller teeth basally in posterior chaetigers (Fig. 11G). Neurochaetae present with heterogomph falcigers and homogomph spinigers (Fig. 11H) in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 11I) and falcigers (Fig. 11J) in ventral fascicles. Neuropodial falcigerous and spinigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Acicula reddish brown to black. Variations in paratypes. Complete specimens present with 32–44 chaetigers, body 3.9–6.8 mm long and 0.3–0.4 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Incomplete specimens present with 35–38 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 4.7–9.3 mm long and 0.4–0.5 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. An incomplete, male epitokous specimen present with 51 chaetigers, anal cirri missing, body 10.2 mm long and 0.6 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Longest tentacular cirri extending to chaetiger 1–3. Area VI present with 2–3 cones, Areas VII–VIII present with 8–10 cones in one row, other Areas difficult to see. Notopodial falcigerous blades short, with terminal and two large lateral teeth and one smaller tooth basally. Pygidium present with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last three chaetigers. A male epitokous specimen present with black, enlarged, overlapping paired eyes. Body divided into 11 prenatatory chaetigers, 23 natatory chaetigers, and 17 post-natatory chaetigers. Parapodia elongated, neuropodial postchaetal lobes modified into large, flat lamella in natatory chaetigers. Dorsal cirri swollen basally with elongated lateral papillae in first seven pre-natatory chaetigers, slender and longer with shorter and more papillae in natatory chaetigers, unmodified in post-natatory chaetigers. Ventral cirri swollen basally with lateral papillae in first four pre-natatory chaetigers, slender and longer in natatory chaetigers, unmodified in post-natatory chaetigers. Paddleshaped notochaetae present in natatory chaetigers. Remarks. The number and arrangement of paragnaths were evaluated based on the holotype and two paratype specimens (including an epitokous specimen). Other paratype specimens had retracted pharynx and were too small to dissect ventrally. Nevertheless, important taxonomic characters, including parapodia and chaetae, were consistent with those of the holotype and paratype specimens with everted pharynx. Nereis yuedensis n. sp. resembles those Nereis species having one row of paragnaths on Areas VII–VIII and notopodial homogomph falcigers with at least one large lateral tooth, including N. bifida Hutchings & Turvey, 1982; N. denhamensis Augener, 1913; N. falcaria (Willey, 1905); N. heirissonensis Augener, 1913; N. panamensis Fauchald, 1977; N. spinigera Hutchings & Turvey, 1982; N. taitungensis Hsueh, 2020; N. taiwanensis Hsueh, 2020; and N. usticensis Cantone, Catalono & Badalamenti, 2003. However, notopodial homogomph falcigers of the latter species often begin after chaetiger 10 or from median chaetigers. Nereis yuedensis n. sp. also differs in the distinct arrangement of lateral teeth of the notopodial falcigers, the absence of notopodial dorsal ligules, and the arrangement of paragnaths (Table 3). Nereis yuedensis n. sp. differs from N. cockburnensis. The first notopodial homogomph falcigers of both species appear at chaetiger 3, but those of the latter species are present with serrated lateral teeth and the remaining falcigers are present with a long terminal tooth and much smaller teeth basally. In addition, N. cockburnensis has more paragnaths on both maxillary and oral rings and well-developed dorsal notopodial ligules throughout chaetigers. Hartmann-Schröder (1982) assigned a nereidid specimen having notopodial homogomph falcigers at least from chaetiger 5 with 3–4 teeth from Jurien Bay (about 25 km from the type locality of N. yuedensis n. sp.) to Nereis cf. jacksoni, yet the arrangement of paragnaths of the specimen was not described. The characteristics of notopodial homogomph falcigers of that specimen is similar to those of N. yuedensis n. sp, and thus they are probably same species. Etymology. The species is named in honour of the Aboriginal people of the Dynamite Bay area, the Yued (Yued is also the name of the region and dialect group), who are part of the broader group of Noongar Aboriginal Australians who have lived in the southwest corner of Western Australia for approximately 40,000 years. The Yued name for the bay is Cuencandjaa, meaning ‘mouthful of sand’. Distribution. Dynamite Bay, Green Head, Western Australia. Although records are limited, at this stage the new species is possibly endemic to temperate Australia realm (Table 2). Habitat. Rocky shores, intertidal (Table 2)., Published as part of Hadiyanto, Hadiyanto, 2023, Nereididae (Annelida: Phyllodocida) from intertidal macroalgae in Western Australia, pp. 151-203 in Zootaxa 5239 (2) on pages 172-173, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5239.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/7624123, {"references":["Hartmann-Schroder, G.

Horner, 19 August 2004. Description. A complete specimen with 78 chaetigers, body 20.1 mm long and 0.7 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Incomplete specimens with 28–61 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 7.2–15.3 mm long and 0.8–1.4 mm wide; light green or cream yellow in alcohol. Dark green or brown bands present on posterior half of chaetiger 2, gradually disappearing towards chaetiger 11–12. Prostomium longer than wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal sizes, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, shorter than palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest one extending to chaetiger 6 (Fig. 5A). Pharyngeal jaws reddish brown, curved at tips, with 11 teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths reddish black, conical, present on both maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 0–1, Area II= 10–16 in two curved rows, Area III= 8 in two rows, Area IV= 20–22 in curved rows, Area V= 0, Area VI= 6–8, small, in two rows, Areas VII–VIII= 9–10 in one row (Fig. 5B). Apodous segment as long as first chaetiger. First chaetiger uniramous. Notopodia present with digitiform dorsal and ventral ligules throughout chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, about twice longer than dorsal ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with digitiform ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and conical postchaetal lobes extending well beyond acicular ligule tips. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, shorter than ventral ligules, similar length throughout all chaetigers (Fig. 5C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers. Neurochaetae present with heterogomph falcigers and homogomph spinigers (Fig. 5D) in dorsal fascicles and heterogomph falcigers (Fig. 5E, 5G) and spinigers (Fig. 5F) in ventral fascicles. Spinigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Falcigerous blades medium size, slightly curved, with a small hook at tip and subdistal tendon (only visible in Fig. 5G). Acicula translucent. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last three chaetigers. Remarks. In our specimens, Area III has fewer paragnaths than that of epitokous specimens from Indonesia (22–25 cones) (Pamungkas & Glasby 2015) and those paragnaths are arranged in two rows, instead of three in specimens from southern India (Fauvel 1932, 1953). Paragnaths on Areas VII–VIII can also be arranged in two rows in specimens from Kuwait (Mohammad 1973). In the original description, neurochaetae in the ventral fascicles consist of heterogomph falcigers and hemigomph (incomplete heterogomph) spinigers (Willey 1905) but those spinigers were described as heterogomph by Ehlers (1918). Other studies did not describe the composition of neurochaetae (Fauvel 1932, 1953; Day 1967; Mohammad 1973; Pamungkas & Glasby 2015). The comparative material from Northern Territory matched closely the Western Australian material, except that the antennae extended beyond the palps in the Northern Territory material (Fig. 19C–D). The chaetae of the comparative material, imaged under a 60 x plan apochromatic objective lens, revealed fine serrations on the heterogomph falcigers (Fig. 5H), which are difficult to see under lower magnifications. Distribution. Tropical Indo-West Pacific; in Australia confirmed that the species occurs from Cape Keraudren, Western Australia to Kakadu, Northern Territory (Table 2). Habitat. Intertidal, subtidal, rocky shores (Table 2)., Published as part of Hadiyanto, Hadiyanto, 2023, Nereididae (Annelida: Phyllodocida) from intertidal macroalgae in Western Australia, pp. 151-203 in Zootaxa 5239 (2) on pages 161-162, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5239.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/7624123, {"references":["Willey, A.

Type locality. Sellicks Beach, South Australia. Material examined. Western Australia: Cosy Corner Beach, 34°15′25.83″S 115°1′43.23″E, 14 December 2020, 1 specimen (WAM V11624). Description. A complete specimen with 24 chaetigers, body 4.5 mm long and 0.5 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium as long as wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal size, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps minute, simple, directed ventrally. Antennae absent. Tentacular cirri four pairs, smooth, longest one extends to chaetiger 3 (Fig. 3B). Apodous segment reduced. First chaetiger uniramous. Notopodia and neuropodia widely separated, comprising a single lobe each, subtriangular distally. Dorsal and ventral cirri cirriform, attached subdistally and basally, respectively, on parapodia, both similar length throughout chaetigers. Accessory parapodial cirri absent (Fig. 3C). Notochaetae and neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers, shafts without septa. Spinigerous blades long, smooth, with fine tips (Fig. 3D) and some with sub-spherical caps (Fig. 3E). Pygidium present with short anal cirri, conical, as long as last chaetiger. Remarks. This specimen is juvenile. The adult species have 27 chaetigers (Paxton 1983). Micronereis halei has accessory parapodial cirri on the ventral side of the notopodia and the dorsal side of the neuropodia (Hartman 1954), but we and Hartmann-Schröder (1983; 1986) cannot find those cirri perhaps due to them being juvenile specimens (Paxton 1983) or females (Hartmann-Schröder 1983). In our specimen and materials examined by Hartman (1954), spinigers are smooth, instead of serrated (Hartmann-Schröder 1983). Chaetae may also consist of homogomph falcigers (Paxton 1983), but we agree that those are modified homogomph spinigers with sub-spherical caps (Fig. 3E) as also observed by Hutchings & Turvey (1982).

Incomplete specimens with 33–35 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 9.3–27.2 mm long and 0.9–2.8 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium as long as wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal sizes, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, shorter than palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest ones extending to chaetiger 5. Pharyngeal jaws reddish black, curved at tips, with eight teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths reddish black, present on maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 5–6 cones, Area II= 10–12 cones in three curved rows, Area III= 9–13 cones with 2 cones at lateral of main group, Area IV= 17–20 cones, Area V= 3 cones in a triangle, Area VI= 1 smooth bar, Areas VII–VIII= 42–44 cones in two rows (Fig. 12A–B). Apodous segment slightly longer than first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with subconical dorsal and ventral ligules in anterior chaetigers, become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Notopodial ligules not greatly expanded posteriorly. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, as long as dorsal ligules. Neuropodia with subconical ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and rounded postchaetal lobes extending to same level of acicular ligule tips; ventral ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, shorter than ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers (Fig. 12C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers. Neurochaetae heterogomph falcigers (Fig. 12D) and homogomph spinigers (Fig. 12E) in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph falcigers and spinigers (Fig. 12F) in ventral fascicles. Homogomph spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations, longer than heterogomph spinigerous blades. Falcigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Acicula black. Remarks. The specimen examined here fits the description of the species by Hutchings et al. (1991), except for the shorter posterodorsal tentacular cirri (only extending to chaetiger 5 vs. to chaetiger 8–16 and having more paragnaths in Area I (5–6 vs. 1–2). However, comparative material from Darwin Harbour, Northern Territory showed intermediate numbers of paragnaths in Area I (3), while having the longer posterodorsal tentacular cirri (at least to chaetiger 12) (Fig. 20A–B), thus we view the differences as intraspecific variation. Our specimens from Ningaloo and Three Mile extend to the southerly distribution of this species, which was previously reported only as far south as Enderby Island (20°36′S). Distribution.

All spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Neuropodial falcigerous blades long, slightly curved, with fine serrations. Acicula black. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last one to three chaetigers. Remarks. Our specimens agree well with the original description of N. bifida (Hutchings & Turvey 1982). Wilson (1985) found that the longest tentacular cirri of N. bifida extended to chaetiger 2–7, longer than those of our specimens and the original description. Hartmann-Schröder (1990) found 10–11 teeth on each jaw, more teeth than our specimens and material examined by previous studies (Hutchings & Turvey 1982; Wilson 1985). In small animals, dorsal notopodial ligules are absent in posterior chaetigers (Hartmann-Schröder 1984). Distribution.

Complete specimens with 57–62 chaetigers, body 16.1–25.4 mm long and 1.0– 1.8 mm wide; cream yellow to reddish brown in alcohol. Incomplete specimens with 31–55 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 10.4–32.5 mm long and 0.9–2.0 mm wide; cream yellow to reddish brown in alcohol. Prostomium longer than wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal sizes, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, shorter than palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest one extending to chaetiger 1–3 (Fig. 8A). Pharyngeal jaws translucent reddish black, curved at tips, with eight teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths translucent reddish black, conical, present on maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 1–3, Area II= 14–16 in two rows, Area III= 13–18 in 3–4 irregular rows, Area IV= 19–21 in four curved rows, Area V= 0, Area VI= 5–11 very small paragnaths in two rows, Areas VII–VIII= 10–13 in one row (Fig. 8B). Apodous segment about twice longer than first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with digitiform dorsal and ventral ligules in anterior chaetigers, basal dorsal ligules enlarged in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, about three times longer than dorsal ligules. Neuropodia with subconical ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and rounded postchaetal lobes extending slightly below acicular ligule tips; ventral ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, slightly shorter than ventral ligules (Fig. 8C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers in anterior chaetigers, homogomph falcigers (Fig. 8D) from chaetiger 15–21. Notopodial falcigerous blades short, with terminal and one lateral tooth, and two smaller teeth basally. Neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers (Fig. 8E) and heterogomph falcigers in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 9F) and falcigers (Fig. 8G) in ventral fascicles. All spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Neuropodial falcigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Acicula black. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last three to five chaetigers. A complete, male epitokous specimen with 56 chaetigers, body 21.1 mm long and 1.0 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Specimen present black, enlarged, overlapping paired eyes, in rectangular arrangement. Body divided into 16 pre-natatory chaetigers, 23 natatory chaetigers, and 17 post-natatory chaetigers. Neuropodial postchaetal lobes modified into large, flat lamella in natatory chaetigers. In natatory chaetigers, dorsal cirri crenulated basally along outer margin of about two-third part and developing a small basal lamella. Ventral cirri unmodified but developing a small basal lamella in natatory chaetigers. Paddle-shaped notochaetae present in natatory chaetigers. Remarks. Nereis denhamensis has been synonymised with N. jacksoni Kinberg, 1865 by Augener (1922b), Fauvel (1932, 1953), and Hartmann-Schröder (1979, 1980, 1984), but others have kept them as distinct species due to differences in parapodia and notopodial homogomph falcigers (Kott 1951; Hartman 1954; Hutchings & Turvey 1982; Wilson 1985). Paragnaths on Areas I and III can be fewer (0–1 cone) but it is rare (Hartmann-Schröder 1980; Hutchings & Turvey 1982; Hartmann-Schröder 1984) and only occur in small specimens (Wilson 1985). In specimens from Victoria, paragnaths on Areas VII–VIII can be arranged in 1–2 rows (Wilson 1985). Anal cirri can extend to last 5–10 chaetigers (Hutchings & Turvey 1982), longer than those of our specimens. Pre-natatory chaetigers of our male epitoke are same as those of a male epitoke examined by Glasby et al. (2013) but two more chaetigers than those of male epitokes examined by Kott (1951) and Hartman (1954). A comparative specimen from Northern Territory agreed in all aspects with the description above except in Areas VII–VIII, where there were 15 paragnaths in one row (Fig. 19G–H). Distribution.

Incomplete specimens with 29–33 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 9.5–15.0 mm long and 1.1–1.4 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium as long as wide. Eyes black, two pairs, outer eyes slightly larger than inner ones, in rectangular arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, extend to level of palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest one extending to chaetiger 5–11. Pharyngeal jaws translucent reddish black, curved at tips, with eight teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths reddish black, pectinate bars, present on maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 0, Area II= 0, Area III= 7 patches in two rows at lateral and three rows in central, Area IV= four curved rows, lateral ones shorter, Area V= 0, Area VI= one slightly curved row, Areas VII–VIII= 5 patches in one row (Fig. 16A–B). Apodous segment as long as first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with conical dorsal and ventral ligules in anterior chaetigers, and those ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, about twice longer than dorsal ligules. Neuropodia with conical ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and triangular postchaetal lobes extending to same level of acicular ligule tips; ventral ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, slightly shorter than ventral ligules (Fig. 16C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers in first three chaetigers, homogomph spinigers (Fig. 16D) and falcigers (Fig. 16E) from chaetiger 4. Notopodial falcigerous blades short, smooth, curved, with a hooked tip connected to blade. Neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers and heterogomph falcigers in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 16F) and falcigers (Fig. 16G) in ventral fascicles. All spinigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Neuropodial falcigerous blades medium-sized, with fine serrations. Acicula translucent. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last one chaetiger. Remarks. The present specimens fit the description of the species by Hutchings & Reid (1991). They are also very similar to the comparative specimens from Ashmore Reef, Western Australia (Fig. 20G–H). As mentioned by these authors, the species is distinguishable from other Australian Platynereis by the presence of a single row of long pectinate bars in the oral ring (P. antipoda and P. polyscalma have two rows). Platynereis uniseris is reported by these authors to be widespread in tropical and warm temperate waters of northern Australia; the present record at Three Mile extends slightly the southern limit of this species for Western Australia.

Western Australia: Cape Keraudren, 19°57′51.30″S 119°47′16.94″E, 5 November 2020, 1 specimen (WAM V11660). Description. A complete specimen with 66 chaetigers, body 17.9 mm long and 0.9 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium as long as wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal sizes, in rectangular arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, as long as palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest one extending to chaetiger 2. Pharyngeal jaws yellow translucent, curved at tips. Paragnaths translucent to reddish, conical, present on both maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 0, Area II= 1, Area III= 0, Area IV= 3 in one row, Area V= 0, Area VI= 0, Areas VII–VIII= 3, small, in one widely spaced row (Fig. 10A). Apodous segment slightly longer than first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with digitiform dorsal and ventral ligules, dorsal ligules completely reduced in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, about three times longer than ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with digitiform ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and conical postchaetal lobes extending below acicular ligule tips. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, as long as ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers (Fig. 10B). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers in anterior chaetigers, homogomph falcigers (Fig. 10C–D) from chaetiger 18. Notopodial falcigerous blades long, slightly curved at tips, with terminal and one to two large lateral teeth. Neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers (Fig. 10E) and heterogomph falcigers in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 10F) and falcigers (Fig. 10G) in ventral fascicles. All spinigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Neuropodial falcigerous blades long, slightly curved, with fine serrations. Acicula black. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last four chaetigers. Remarks. Nereis heirissonensis has been synonymized with N. jacksoni by Fauvel (1932, 1953), Hartman (1954), Fauchald (1977), and Hartmann-Schröder (1983), but Hutchings & Turvey (1982) and Wilson (1985) assigned the former species as a distinct species. The redescription of N. jacksoni showed that this species has far more paragnaths on Areas VII–VIII (40–45 cones in 2–4 rows) and more teeth on the first notopodial homogomph falcigers (Hutchings & Turvey 1982; Wilson 1985). Anal cirri of our specimens are shorter than those of materials examined by previous studies, extending over 7–9 chaetigers (Augener 1913; Hutchings & Turvey 1982). Distribution.

Description. Complete specimens with 38–65 chaetigers, body 21.4–32.6 mm long and 1.5–2.2 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. An incomplete specimen 34 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 11.2 mm long and 1.3 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium longer than wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal sizes, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, as long as palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest one extending to chaetiger 3–5. Pharyngeal jaws black, curved at tips, with seven teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths, reddish black, conical, present on maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 1, Area II= 8–9 in two rows, Area III= 1–6, Area IV= 14–23, Area V= 3–17 in an irregular cluster and most cones extending onto Area VI, Area VI= 4–5 in two rows, Areas VII–VIII= numerous cones in 2–6 irregular rows, cones smaller toward posterior rows (as viewed on everted pharynx), most antero-ventral row present with alternating large and small cones, posterior rows present with small cones only (Fig. 7A–B). Apodous segment longer than first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with digitiform dorsal and conical ventral ligules in anterior chaetigers, ventral ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, three times longer than dorsal ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with conical ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and conical postchaetal lobes extending to same level of acicular ligule tips; ventral ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, slightly longer than ventral ligules (Fig. 7C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers (Fig. 7D) and falcigers (Fig. 7E) from chaetiger 3, homogomph falcigers (Fig. 7F) in posterior chaetigers. First notopodial falcigerous blades (at chaetiger 3) long, with serrated lateral teeth, remaining notopodial falcigerous blades short, with long terminal tooth and three smaller lateral teeth distally. Neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers and heterogomph falcigers in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 7G) and falcigers (Fig. 7H) in ventral fascicles. All spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Neuropodial falcigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Acicula black. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, with cirriform anal cirri, as long as last four chaetigers. An incomplete, female epitokous specimen with 62 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 32.5 mm long and 2.5 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Specimen present with black, enlarged, overlapping paired eyes. Body divided into 16 pre-natatory chaetigers, 39 natatory chaetigers, and 7 post-natatory chaetigers. Neuropodial postchaetal lobes modified into large, flat lamella in natatory chaetigers. Dorsal and ventral cirri unmodified but developing small basal lamella in natatory chaetigers. Paddle-shaped notochaetae in natatory chaetigers. Remarks. Juveniles have been observed to have a single, bifurcated antenna, instead of one pair, as their bases are fused together (Hartmann-Schröder 1986); this condition has been observed in several other nereidid species in the Australian region by CJG and is thought to represent an abnormality. Area V in our specimens and materials examined by Hutchings & Turvey (1982) have the same number of paragnaths but have more paragnaths than that of specimens examined by Augener (1913) (6 cones), Hartman (1954) (1–8 cones), Day (1975) (1–8 cones), and Wilson (1985) (1–3 cones). Those paragnaths are arranged in an irregular cluster, instead of two rows (Augener 1913). Nereis thompsoni Kott, 1951 was synonymised with N. cockburnensis by Hutchings & Turvey (1982). Our specimens agree well with the original description of N. thompsoni, except that Area V of this species has fewer paragnaths (3 large cones) (Kott 1951; Hartman 1954). The comparative specimen was collected within the same general area of the survey material. It matches closely the survey specimens and the type description.A characteristic feature of this species is the combination of large and small cones in Areas VII–VIII; the colour images also revealed pseudo-articulation of the antennae and tentacular cirri, which is unusual among nereidids and may be another characteristic feature of the species (Fig. 19E–F).

Bakken, 22 September 2000, 1 (NTM W19031). Description. Complete specimens with 31–46 chaetigers, body 5.3–30.4 mm long and 0.4–2.4 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Incomplete specimens with 31–39 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 5.3–31.7 mm long and 0.4–2.3 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium as long as wide. Eyes black, two pairs, outer eyes slightly larger than inner ones, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, slightly shorter than palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest one extending to chaetiger 7–8. Pharyngeal jaws translucent reddish black, curved at tips, with nine teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths reddish black, pectinate bars, present on maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 0, Area II= 0, Area III= 2 patches in two rows, Area IV= 4 curved rows, lateral ones shorter, Area V= 0, Area VI= two curved rows, Areas VII–VIII= 5 patches in one row at lateral and two rows at ventral (Fig. 15A–B). Apodous segment as long as first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with conical dorsal and ventral ligules in anterior chaetigers, those ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached near edge of dorsal parapodia, about three times longer than dorsal ligules. Neuropodia with conical ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and triangular postchaetal lobes extending to same level of acicular ligule tips; ventral ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, slightly shorter than ventral ligules (Fig. 15C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers in anterior chaetigers, homogomph spinigers and falcigers (Fig. 15D), latter from chaetiger 13–17. Notopodial falcigerous blades short, smooth, curved, with a hooked tip connected to blade. Neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers (Fig. 15E) and heterogomph falcigers in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 15F) and falcigers (Fig. 15G–H) in ventral fascicles. All spinigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Neuropodial falcigerous blades medium size, with fine serrations and sometimes a tip connected to blade present. Acicula translucent. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last one chaetiger. Remarks. The present specimens fit the description of the species by Hutchings & Reid (1991). They are also very similar to the comparative specimens from Darwin Harbour (Fig. 20E–F). The species is reported by these authors to be widespread in tropical and warm temperate waters of northern Australia. Our specimen from Falcon, Mandurah extends slightly the southernmost record in Western Australia to 32°35′S. However, as pointed out by Read (2007) cryptic species exist for New Zealand forms of Platynereis australis, and museum specimens cannot be separated into species by morphology. Separation to species requires a consideration of living colour patterns, morphological features of the epitokes, and molecular data (Teixeira et al. 2022). Thus, the Australian fauna of Platynereis, excluding the distinctive P. bicanaliculata Baird, 1863, is each likely to encompass undescribed cryptic species. Living specimens show green pigmentation with white spots on the dorsum and white patch on the prostomium. The pectinate bars in Areas VII–VIII can be arranged in 5–6 patches (Glasby 2015). Distribution. Tropical Indian and Pacific Ocean, warm temperate waters of Australia (Table 2). Habitat.

Complete specimens with 48–74 chaetigers, body 14.6–26.4 mm long and 1.3–2.1 mm wide; cream yellow to reddish brown in alcohol. Incomplete specimens with 29–35 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 10.6–18.5 mm long and 0.9–1.9 mm wide; cream yellow to reddish brown in alcohol. Prostomium as long as wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal size, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, shorter than palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest ones extending to chaetiger 2–5. Pharyngeal jaws black, curved at tips, with eight teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths present on maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 0–2 cones, Area II= 14–26 p-bars in 2–4 rows, Area III= 10–49 p-bars in 3–4 rows, Area IV= 27–32 p-bars in 5–6 rows, Area V= 0, Area VI= 5–12 cones in 1–2 rows, Areas VII–VIII= alternating 14–17 paragnaths, combination of cones and p-bars (Fig. 18A–B). Apodous segment slightly longer than first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with conical dorsal and ventral ligules, those ligules become subconical in posterior chaetigers, dorsal ligules prolonged in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, about three times longer than dorsal ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with conical ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and triangular postchaetal lobes extending to same level of acicular ligule tips; ventral ligules become subconical in posterior chaetigers. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, slightly longer than ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers (Fig. 18C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers. Neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers (Fig. 18D) and heterogomph falcigers in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph falcigers (Fig. 18E) in ventral fascicles. All spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Falcigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Acicula black. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, with slender anal cirri, as long as last six chaetigers. An incomplete, female epitokous specimen with 60 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 17.9 mm long and 2.4 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Specimen present with black, enlarged, overlapping paired eyes, in rectangular arrangement. Body divided into 16 pre-natatory chaetigers and 44 natatory chaetigers; pre-natatory chaetigers longer than natatory chaetigers.All parapodial ligules and lobes modified into large, flat lamella in natatory chaetigers. Dorsal and ventral cirri unmodified but developing small basal lamella from chaetiger 15 (two chaetigers before natatory chaetigers); lamella larger in natatory chaetigers. Paddle-shaped notochaetae in natatory chaetigers. ......continued on the next page TABLE 2. (Continued) ......continued on the next page TABLE 2. (Continued) ......continued on the next page TABLE 2.

(Continued) 1 Composetia costae (Grube, 1840) outside Tyrrhenian and Ligurian Seas need to be re-examined (Villalobos-Guerrero et al. 2021). 2 Nereis angusticollis Kinberg, 1865 from Shark Bay, Western Australia described by Augener (1913) is questioned by Hartman (1948). ......continued on the next page TABLE 3. (Continued) Remarks. Pseudonereis rottnestiana has been synonymised with P. anomala by Bakken (2007) because he found no morphological evidence of difference (however, he noted that all notopodial chaetae in the original specimen of P. rottnestiana were broken). However, based on our observations of the specimens at hand, we agree with Fauvel (1932) and Hartman (1954) that P. rottnestiana differs from P. anomala due to the absence of notopodial homogomph falcigers, and herein reinstate the species. Hartmann-Schröder (1979) reported two forms: P. rottnestiana forma seriodentata and P. rottnestiana forma costatodentata. According to Bakken (2007), the first form completely agrees with the original description of P. rottnestiana (Hartmann-Schröder 1979) and the latter form was synonymised with P. trimaculata (Horst, 1924 ). Tentacular cirri of our specimens are shorter than those of materials examined by Augener (1913) and Fauvel (1932). Distribution. Indo-Australian: Andaman, Western Australia, South Australia (Table 2). Habitat.

Glasby, Bandy Creek Jetty, Esperance, Western Australia, 33°51′S 121°55′E, 1 (NTM W18357), coll. Mulligan, 17 March 2002. Description. Incomplete specimens with 20–28 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 3.4–5.7 mm long and 0.6–1.0 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium as long as wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal sizes, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, shorter than palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest one extending to chaetiger 6–7 (Fig. 4A). Pharyngeal jaws reddish black, curved at tips, with eight teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths reddish to black, conical, present on both maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 5–6, Area II= 32–33 in a triangle, Area III= 30 in an ellipse, Area IV= 33–36 in a triangle, Areas V–VIII= a continuous band of paragnaths about 2–5 deep dorsally, 4–5 deep ventrally (Fig. 4B–C). Apodous segment as long as first chaetiger. All chaetigers biramous. Notopodia present with triangular dorsal ligules, digitiform intermediate and inferior ligules. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on lower-middle of dorsal parapodia, as long as dorsal ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with digitiform ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and subconical postchaetal lobes extending well beyond acicular ligule tips. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, shorter than ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers (Fig. 4D). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers (Fig. 4E). Neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers and heterogomph falcigers (Fig. 4F) in both dorsal and ventral fascicles. Spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Falcigerous blades long, with fine serrations, and a small, hooked tooth. Acicula translucent. Remarks. Pettibone (1963) and Imajima (1972) synonymized N. cricognatha with N. caudata (delle Chiaje, 1828) and N. arenaceodentata (Moore, 1903); the two latter species were assigned to N. acuminata (Ehlers, 1868) by Day (1973). However, we are following the more recent studies that have used the name N. cricognatha for Australian specimens (Hutchings & Turvey 1982; Wilson 1984; Glasby 2015). The dorsal cirri of our specimens are longer and attached more basally than that of materials identified as Nereis (Neanthes) arenaceodonta from Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Jersey, and Maryland, USA (Pettibone 1963). In addition, the falcigers of our specimens have a hooked distal tooth (Fig. 4F), while those of N. caudata from Japan have a blunt tip (Imajima 1972). A recent molecular study has found that N. caudata, N. arenaceodentata, and N. acuminata show multiple evolutionary significant units although they are identical in terms of paragnath distribution and parapodial characteristics (Reish et al. 2014). In our study specimens, Area I has fewer paragnaths than that reported by Augener (1913), Hutchings & Rainer (1979), Hutchings & Turvey (1982), and Wilson (1984) and seen in the comparative material from Esperance, Western Australia, which has 12 paragnaths (Fig. 19A); the comparative specimen also has many more paragnaths in Areas VII–VIII (Fig. 19B). In addition, all chaetigers are biramous, instead of uniramous for first two chaetigers (Ehlers 1904). Possibly, it represents an undescribed species, but more specimens are required to establish the extent of size-dependent variation in paragnath number. Distribution.

Glasby, Taylor Street Marina, Esperance, Western Australia, 33°51′S 121°55′E, coll. Mulligan, 17 March 2002, 2 (NTM W18369). Description. Complete specimens with 66–75 chaetigers, body 22.1–36.0 mm long and 1.8–2.9 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. An incomplete specimen with 39 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 8.2 long and 1.1 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium as long as wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal sizes, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, shorter than palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest ones extending to chaetiger 6–9. Pharyngeal jaws reddish brown, curved at tips, with eight teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths reddish black, present on maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 8 cones of two sizes, Area II= 7 cones in two oblique rows, Area III= 8 cones in two rows, Area IV= 12–13 cones in two oblique rows, Area V= 6 cones in two curved rows, Area VI= two long transverse bars in one row, Areas VII–VIII= 64–84 cones in 1–3 rows at lateral and 6 rows at ventral (Figs 13A–B, 20C–D). Apodous segment as long as first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with subconical dorsal and ventral ligules in anterior chaetigers, those ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, twice longer than dorsal ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with subconical ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and triangular postchaetal lobes extending to same level of acicular ligule tips; ventral ligules become digitiform in posterior chaetigers. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, as long as ventral ligules (Fig. 13C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers (Fig. 13D). Neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers and heterogomph falcigers in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 13E) and falcigers (Fig. 13F) in ventral fascicles. All spinigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Falcigerous blades short, curved at tips, with fine serrations. Acicula black. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, with slender anal cirri, as long as last five chaetigers. Remarks. In our specimens, Area III has more paragnaths than that of materials examined in the original description (2) (Augener 1913) and previous studies (1–6) (Kott 1951; Hartman 1954; Hutchings & Turvey 1982; Hutchings et al. 1991). Area IV is sometimes present with 1–2 bars in additional to cones, and the lateral cones in the inner cluster of Area V almost contact Area VI (Hartmann-Schröder 1984; Hutchings et al. 1991).

Holotype a complete specimen with 54 chaetigers, body 19.1 mm long and 1.3 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium wider than long. Eyes black, two pairs, equal sizes, in trapezoidal arrangement. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical. Antennae one pair, extending to level of palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest one extending to chaetiger 5. Pharyngeal jaws translucent reddish black, curved at tips, with nine teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths reddish black, conical, present on maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= small, 1; Area II= small, 7 on left and 8 on right, in a triangle in each side; Area III= small, 2 in one straight transverse row; Area IV= small, 10 on left and 11 on right, in a curved cluster in each side; Area V= 0; Area VI= small, 6 on left in 2 rows and 5 on right in a circle; Areas VII–VIII= 12 in one row (8 large paragnaths widely spaced and 4 small paragnaths in ventromedial row) (Fig. 9A–B). Apodous segment slightly longer than first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with digitiform dorsal and ventral ligules (Fig. 9C–E), basal dorsal ligules enlarged in middle (Fig. 9D) and posterior chaetigers (Fig. 9E). Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, twice longer than dorsal ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with digitiform ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and triangular postchaetal lobes extending below acicular ligule tips (Fig. 9C–E). Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, slightly shorter than ventral ligules in all chaetigers. Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers in anterior chaetigers, homogomph falcigers (Fig. 9F) from chaetiger 20, two falcigers in each notopodium. Notopodial falcigerous blades short, smooth, slightly curved at tips. Neurochaetae present with heterogomph falcigers (Fig. 9G) and homogomph spinigers (Fig. 9H) in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 9I) and falcigers in ventral fascicles. Neuropodial falcigerous blades medium size, with fine serrations. All spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Acicula black. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last four chaetigers. Variations in paratypes. Complete specimens with 39–69 chaetigers, body 6.2–37.3 mm long and 0.4–1.5 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Incomplete specimens with 29–44 chaetigers, posterior end missing, remaining body 5.7–32.9 mm long and 0.7–1.5 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Longest tentacular cirri extend to chaetiger 2–5. Paragnaths small but larger in Areas VII–VIII, arranged as follows: Area I= 0–1, Area II= 3–8 in a triangle, Area III= 0–5 in one straight transverse row, Area IV= 5–12 in a curved cluster, Area V= 0, Area VI= 2–7 in an oval, Areas VII–VIII= 6–10 in one row, including 1–3 smaller paragnaths in ventromedial row in some specimens. Notopodial homogomph falcigers present from chaetiger 18– 24, two falcigers (occasionally 3) in each notopodium or 1–2 falcigers in small specimens (Remarks. Nereis edentata n. sp. most closely resembles Nereis species having one row of paragnaths on Areas VII–VIII and smooth notopodial homogomph falcigers including: Nereis coutieri Gravier, 1899, Nereis eugeniae (Kinberg, 1865) and Nereis posidoniae Hutchings & Rainer, 1979. Nereis edentata n. sp. and N. coutieri have enlarged dorsal notopodial ligules in posterior chaetigers, but they differ in the ornamentation of the dorsal chaetiger 2 and the arrangement of paragnaths on Areas III and VII–VIII. Nereis coutieri has a brown band dorsally on chaetiger 2 (Gravier 1899a; Gravier 1902; Fauvel 1911; Yousefi et al. 2011), while Nereis edentata n. sp. lacks a band. Nereis coutieri has more paragnaths on Area III (5–7) (Gravier 1899a; Gravier 1902; Yousefi et al. 2011) and those paragnaths are arranged in a curved row with a deep concavity ahead in specimens from the Red Sea (type locality) (Gravier 1899a; Gravier 1902) or an irregular group in specimens from South Africa and Mozambique (Day 1967), instead of in a straight transverse row as for Nereis edentata n. sp. Paragnaths on Areas VII–VIII are present in a similar size for N. coutieri (Gravier 1899a; Gravier 1902; Day 1967; Bonyadi-Naeini et al. 2017) but in two sizes for some specimens of Nereis edentata n. sp. In addition, N. coutieri has only one uniramous chaetiger in the first parapodium (Fauvel 1911) although this is not mentioned in the original description (Gravier 1899a) and previous studies (Gravier 1902; Day 1967; Yousefi et al. 2011), while Nereis edentata n. sp. has two uniramous chaetigers in first two parapodia. Nereis edentata n. sp. also differs from materials from Lizard Island, Queensland that were identified by Glasby (2015) as Nereis cf. coutieri. Dorsal notopodial ligules of the latter species are shorter than ventral notopodial ligules (Glasby 2015). Hartmann-Schröder (1982, 1983) found N. coutieri from south-west Australia (Yallingup and Margaret River). These specimens need to be assessed further as there was no description of the ornamentation of the dorsal chaetiger 2 and the arrangement of paragnaths on Area III. Nereis edentata n. sp., N. eugeniae, and N. posidoniae do not have a pigmented band on the dorsal chaetiger 2, but they differ in the size of the eyes, the length of the tentacular cirri, the presence of paragnaths on Area VI, and the enlargement of dorsal notopodial ligules in posterior chaetigers. The eyes of N. eugeniae are small and occasionally absent (Hartman 1964; Day 1967; Darbyshire 2014). The tentacular cirri of N. eugeniae and N. posidoniae are shorter than those of Nereis edentata n. sp., with the longest one extending to only the apodous segment (Kinberg 1865; Hartman 1964; Day 1967; Hutchings & Rainer 1979; Darbyshire 2014). Paragnaths on Area VI are absent for N. posidoniae (Hutchings & Rainer 1979) but present for Nereis edentata n. sp. and N. eugeniae (3–6) (Hartman 1964; Day 1967; Darbyshire 2014). Dorsal notopodial ligules in posterior chaetigers are not expanded in N. eugeniae (Hartman 1964; Day 1967; Darbyshire 2014) and not described in N. posidoniae (Hutchings & Rainer 1979) but enlarged in Nereis edentata n. sp. Etymology. The new species is named after the Latin adjective, edentates, meaning toothless, referring to the smooth-bladed homogomph falcigers. Distribution. South-west Australia. Distribution records indicate that the new species appears to be transitional between the tropical and temperate Australia realms (Table 2). Habitat. Intertidal, rocky shores (Table 2)., Published as part of Hadiyanto, Hadiyanto, 2023, Nereididae (Annelida: Phyllodocida) from intertidal macroalgae in Western Australia, pp. 151-203 in Zootaxa 5239 (2) on pages 168-170, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5239.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/7624123, {"references":["Kinberg, J.

Cape Keraudren, 19°57′51.30″S 119°47′16.94″E, 5 November 2020, 1 specimen (WAM V11691). Description. Complete specimens with 57–76 chaetigers, body 13.5–37.3 mm long and 1.0–2.0 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Prostomium as long as wide. Eyes black, two pairs, equal size, in trapezoidal arrangement. Eyes two pairs, equal size. Palps one pair, palpophores globose, palpostyles conical.Antennae one pair, shorter than palps. Tentacular cirri four pairs with basal articulation, longest one extending to chaetiger 3. Pharyngeal jaws black, curved at tips, with eight teeth on each jaw. Paragnaths translucent brown, present on maxillary and oral rings, arranged as follows: Area I= 1–3 cones, Area II= 16–23 p-bars in a triangle, Area III= 32–58 p-bars in 3–4 rows, Area IV= 32–33 p-bars in four curved rows, Area V= 0, Area VI= 5–8 cones in one row, Areas VII–VIII= 12–15 cones in one row (Fig. 17A). Apodous segment as long as first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with digitiform dorsal and ventral ligules, dorsal ligules prolonged in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, about three times longer than dorsal ligules. Neuropodia with digitiform ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and triangular postchaetal lobes extending below acicular ligule tips. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, as long as ventral ligules (Fig. 17B). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers (Fig. 17C) in anterior chaetigers, homogomph falcigers (Fig. 17D) from chaetiger 23–39. Notopodial falcigerous blades medium-sized, with fine serrations. Neurochaetae present with heterogomph falcigers (Fig. 17E) and homogomph spinigers in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 17F) and falcigers in ventral fascicles. All spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Neuropodial falcigerous blades short, with fine serrations. Acicula black. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last three chaetigers. Remarks. In specimens collected from Thailand, paragnaths on Area VI are arranged in 1–2 rows (Hylleberg et al. 1986). The tentacular and anal cirri of our specimens are shorter than those of materials examined by Bakken (2007). Notopodial homogomph falcigers can be present from chaetiger 5 to mid-body (Glasby et al. 2013), earlier than those of our specimens. It is noteworthy that the Indonesian species Pseudonereis trimaculata (Horst, 1924) has been found just to the north of the present specimens in Tranquil Bay (13°56′S 127°18′E) intertidally in a sandy bay with rocky headlands (NTM W19035). It can easily be distinguished from P. anomala by the form of paragnaths in Area VI (see key below). Distribution. Tropical Indian Ocean, Mediterranean Sea, Aegean Sea (Table 2). Habitat.

Apodous segment longer than first chaetiger. First two chaetigers uniramous. Notopodia present with subconical dorsal and ventral ligules, dorsal ligules enlarged in posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirri cirriform, attached on middle of dorsal parapodia, about four times longer than ventral ligules, similar length throughout chaetigers. Neuropodia with subconical ventral ligules, acicular ligules, and triangular postchaetal lobes extending well beyond acicular ligule tips. Ventral cirri cirriform, attached basally on ventral parapodia, slightly shorter than inferior ligules (Fig. 14C). Notochaetae present with homogomph spinigers in anterior chaetigers, homogomph spinigers (Fig. 14D) and falcigers (Fig. 14E) from chaetiger 21–30 or chaetiger 13 in small specimens. Notopodial falcigerous blades long, curved, with fine serrations and a hooked tip connected to blade. Neurochaetae present with homogomph spinigers and heterogomph falcigers (Fig. 14F) in dorsal fascicles, heterogomph spinigers (Fig. 14G) and falcigers in ventral fascicles. Neuropodial falcigerous blades medium size, slightly curved at tips, with fine serrations and a hooked tip connected to blade. All spinigerous blades long, with fine serrations. Acicula translucent. Pygidium with anus on dorsal side, anal cirri cirriform, as long as last four to six chaetigers. A complete, female epitokous specimen with 62 chaetigers, body 17.7 mm long and 1.5 mm wide; cream yellow in alcohol. Body divided into 16 pre-natatory chaetigers, 34 natatory chaetigers, and 12 post-natatory chaetigers. Neuropodial postchaetal lobes modified into large, flat lamella in natatory chaetigers. Dorsal and ventral cirri swollen basally, unmodified in natatory chaetigers. Remarks. The species is considered a full species in this study, following Bakken & Wilson (2005) who found obvious differences between Australian specimens of Platynereis antipoda and northern European specimens of Platynereis dumerilii. They could not justify the subspecies based on this information, and thus P. antipoda is assigned as a valid species. Pectinate bars on Area IV can also be arranged in 3–4 triangular rows (Hutchings & Turvey 1982). Pre-natatory chaetigers of our female specimens were fewer than those of female P. antipoda from Port Hedland, Western Australia (21) (Hartmann-Schröder 1979), Port Jackson, New South Wales (21) (Hartman 1954), and South Australia (18) (Hutchings & Turvey 1982), suggesting that they are probably sympatric species. Morphological examination of both male and female epitokes of P. antipoda across Australian waters will better establish the limits of species. Read (2007) has described sympatric species of Platynereis from New Zealand based on both epitokous male and female specimens. Hutchings & Rainer (1979) found that P. antipoda from Careel Bay, New South Wales has dark brown acicula and no notopodial falcigers. Those characteristics look similar to a closely-related species, P. australis (Schmarda, 1861), which has black acicula (Imajima 1972) and lacks notopodial falcigers in adults (Hutchings & Reid 1991).

Chrysopetalids, more specifically the subfamily Chrysopetalinae, are known for their characteristic, flattened, leaf-like notopodial chaetae. In many chrysopetalid species the animal's body is dorsally covered by these paleae that are arranged in rows similar to the blades of a folding fan. In this study we investigate and compare the chaetal arrangement in two chrysopetalids: Bhawania goodei Webster, 1884 and Chrysopetalum cf. occidentale Johnson, 1897, using serial sectioning and 3D models. Our results reveal details on the topology of the chaetal formative site, where chaetogenesis occurs continuously. The course of chaetogenesis is significantly affected by the very large size of the chaetae, but nevertheless follows the general pattern of chaetogenesis in Annelida. Ultrastructure of the paleae confirms previous observations. The results of the study are the first on chaetogenesis and chaetal topology in a representative of the Phyllodocida. They indicate differences in the number of formative sites in neuro- and notopodia that now need to be studied in a larger number phyllodocid taxa. A special focus has been laid on details of paleal formation to study potential phylogenetic affinities between Wiwaxia and Chrysopetalidae that were proposed due to the significant similarity of the paleae to the sclerites of Wiwaxia.

The annelid body can be subdivided into three main regions: the prostomium, the body segments, and the pygidium. The prostomium and pygidium, originating from the episphere and the posterior part of the hyposphere of a trochophore larva, are usually mentioned as non-homologous to body segments. However, recent studies revealed that the pygidium of several annelid species is far more complex than previously mentioned and possesses some segment-like features. To assess the diversity of a pygidial organization, I describe the innervation and muscular system of the pygidium in 19 annelid species belonging to the order Phyllodocida using phalloidin labeling, immunohistochemistry and confocal scanning microscopy. The musculature of the pygidium varies between families and usually consists of the circular and/or horseshoe-shaped hindgut sphincter muscles. In several families it can be accompanied by small additional transversal or dorso-ventral muscles. In contrast to the variable musculature, the pygidial innervation is far more uniform and in general comprises two huge main longitudinal nerves, a terminal commissure between them, and paired circumpigidial nerves. The pygidial epithelium bears numerous receptor cell endings, suggesting that the pygidium may act as an important sensory organ. The obtained results are in accordance with the recent data and indicate that such muscular and nervous organization may be characteristic of the whole order Phyllodocida. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Galapagomystides is an exclusively deep-sea group of Phyllodocidae, originally erected for Galapagomystides aristata from hydrothermal vents of the Galapagos Rift. In this study, Phyllodocidae collected from hydrothermal vents and methane seeps from the Pacific Ocean, including specimens from vents of the East Pacific Rise identified as Galapagomystides were studied using morphology (light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy) and DNA sequence data. Phylogenetic analysis of the newly generated molecular data (cytochrome c oxidase subunit I, 16S rRNA, 18S rRNA, and 28S rRNA) combined with an already available extensive dataset for Phyllodocidae resulted in a monophyletic Galapagomystides comprising five species. Galapagomystides aristata was found to occur on the East Pacific Rise vents as well as the Galapagos Rift and is redescribed. Two new species were from hydrothermal vents in the West Pacific, G. bobpearsoni n. sp., and G. kathyae n. sp., as well as one new species from a cold seep in the eastern Pacific, G. patricki n. sp. These new species are formally described, and a previously known vent species, Protomystides verenae, is redescribed and transferred to Galapagomystides. Galapagomystides verenae n. comb. was found to occur in both vents and seeps in the eastern Pacific, from Oregon to Costa Rica. The diagnosis of Galapagomystides is amended and the biogeography and habitat evolution of the five species of Galapagomystides is discussed.

Two new species of Pilargidae, Ancistrosyllis eidimtaiteae sp. nov. and A. suksani sp. nov., are described from the Gulf of Thailand. These Ancistrosyllis are characterized by having a median and two lateral antennae. Ancistrosyllis eidimtaiteae sp. nov. differs from all other species in the group by having brown pigmentation and by having both short antennae and tentacular cirri, first notopodial hooks from chaetiger 3, and a single type of neurochaetae (long non-limbate capillaries with bifid tips). Ancistrosyllis suksani sp. nov. can be distinguished from other species of Ancistrosyllis by the presence of the first notopodial hooks from chaetiger 4 and three types of neurochaetae (short, stout, falcates with a subdistal small guard, short limbates, and long bifid non-limbates). An updated key to the Ancistrosyllis species of this group is also provided.

The marine annelid family Sigalionidae is little known in the Grand Caribbean Region; there are few records of these worms in the area, and some of the recorded species have uncertain taxonomic status. In this contribution, the subfamily Pelogeniinae was addressed through a faunistic study, aiming to improve the knowledge of Sigalionidae in the region. In order to do this, material deposited in the three following institutions was examined: University of Miami Deep Sea Expeditions; Florida Museum of Natural History, University of Florida, Gainesville; and El Colegio de la Frontera Sur, Chetumal. Eleven species are recognized, including six newly described: Dayipsammolyce paulayi sp. nov., Hartmanipsammolyce pettiboneae sp. nov., Neopsammolyce fragilis sp. nov., Pelogenia brevipalpata sp. nov., P. capitata sp. nov. and P. salazarvallejoi sp. nov. Four other species are confirmed for this region: N. floccifera (Augener, 1906), P. hartmanae Pettibone, 1997, P. kinbergi (Hansen, 1882) and Psammolyce flava Kinberg, 1856; and one is indeterminate: N. aff. floccifera. A standardized terminology of neurochaetae is proposed, along with notes on the notochaetal morphology and elytral structures. For all genera covered in this study, identification keys are also provided.
