Synonymy To S. pharobroomensis (Hartmann-Schröder, 1979). Over a few years Hartmann-Schröder created several what are evidently similar Australian Typosyllis species. Licher (2000) synonymised some and then San Martin et al. (2024) synonymized them differently. As these are morphological subjective synonymies they may be unreliable, pending molecular data.
