Original specimens and type localities of early described polychaete species (Annelida) from Norway, with particular attention to species described by O.F. Müller and M. Sars. Memoirs of Museum Victoria 71: 217–236. Early descriptions of species from Norwegian waters are reviewed, with a focus on the basic requirements for re- assessing their characteristics, in particular, by clarifying the status of the original material and locating sampling sites. A large number of polychaete species from the North Atlantic were described in the early period of zoological studies in the 18th and 19th centuries.

  • A New Cryptic Species of Neanthes (Annelida: Phyllodocida: Nereididae)
    RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY 2015 RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY Supplement No. 31: 75–95 Date of publication: 10 July 2015 http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:A039A3A6-C05B-4F36-8D7F-D295FA236C6B A new cryptic species of Neanthes (Annelida: Phyllodocida: Nereididae) from Singapore confused with Neanthes glandicincta Southern, 1921 and Ceratonereis (Composetia) burmensis (Monro, 1937) Yen-Ling Lee1* & Christopher J. Glasby2 Abstract. A new cryptic species of Neanthes (Nereididae), N. wilsonchani, new species, is described from intertidal mudflats of eastern Singapore. The new species was confused with both Ceratonereis (Composetia) burmensis (Monro, 1937) and Neanthes glandicincta Southern, 1921, which were found to be conspecific with the latter name having priority. Neanthes glandicincta is newly recorded from Singapore, its reproductive forms (epitokes) are redescribed, and Singapore specimens are compared with topotype material from India. The new species can be distinguished from N. glandicincta by slight body colour differences and by having fewer pharyngeal paragnaths in Areas II (4–8 vs 7–21), III (11–28 vs 30–63) and IV (1–9 vs 7–20), and in the total number of paragnaths for all Areas (16–41 vs 70–113). No significant differences were found in the morphology of the epitokes between the two species. The two species have largely non-overlapping distributions in Singapore; the new species is restricted to Pleistocene coastal alluvium in eastern Singapore, while N. glandicinta occurs in western Singapore as well as in Malaysia and westward to India. Key words. polychaete, new species, taxonomy, ragworm INTRODUCTION Both species are atypical members of their respective nominative genera: N.

  • Family Nereididae Marine Sediment Monitoring
    Family Nereididae Marine Sediment Monitoring Puget Sound Polychaetes: Nereididae Family Nereididae Family-level characters (from Hilbig, 1994) Prostomium piriform (pear-shaped) or rounded, bearing 2 antennae, two biarticulate palps, and 2 pairs of eyes. Eversible pharynx with 2 sections, the proximal oral ring and the distal maxillary ring which possesses 2 fang-shaped, often serrated terminal jaws; both the oral and maxillary rings may bear groups of papillae or hardened paragnaths of various sizes, numbers, and distribution patterns. Peristomium without parapodia, with 4 pairs of tentacular cirri. Parapodia uniramous in the first 2 setigers and biramous thereafter; parapodia possess several ligules (strap-like lobes) and both a dorsal cirrus and ventral cirrus. Shape, size, location of ligules is distinctive. They are more developed posteriorly, so often need to see ones from median to posterior setigers. Setae generally compound in both noto- and neuropodia; some genera have simple falcigers (blunt-tipped setae)(e.g., Hediste and Platynereis); completely lacking simple capillary setae. Genus and species-level characters The kind and the distribution of the setae distinguish the genera and species. The number and distribution of paragnaths on the pharynx. Unique terminology for this family Setae (see Hilbig, 1994, page 294, for pictures of setae) o Homogomph – two prongs of even length where the two articles of the compound setae connect. o Heterogomph – two prongs of uneven length where the two articles of the compound setae connect. o Spinigers - long articles in the compound setae. o Falcigers – short articles in the compound setae. o So, there can be homogomph falcigers and homogomph spinigers, and heterogomph falcigers and heterogomph spinigers.
