Description There is a brief Latin diagnosis: Tubularia "Penicillus cristata , cirris pectinatis pavoniis , tubulo curvato , laevi" [Crested pencil, combed peacock's curls, with a curved tube, and a smooth surface.] [details]
Editor's comment Knight-Jones & Perkins (1988) assign the Tubularia penicillus sensu Müller, 1776 to Sabella pavonina, and they assign Serpula penicillus (later Sabella penicillus) of Linnaeus, 1758 to Sabella spallanzanii (Gmelin, 1791), which was originally Tubularia spallanzanii, which is named in a later edition of the same work, "Systema naturae". Readers will have to study their article to see how this is possible. Müller's 1776 brief diagnosis of Tubularia penicillus is closely similar to the later diagnosis for Serpula penicillus in Gmelin.
