[details]Type species Type species Amphitrite plumosa O. F. Muller 1776 in Fauchald, 1977:117. [details]
Validity Pherusa (a potential junior homonym if Pherusa not available as published in 1807) was introduced as a name for an existing species, Amphitrite plumosa, and therefore is an available name from that date (see ICZN Art 12.2.5) and appears to be the senior homonym, thus valid. [details]
