| Notes |
Editor's comment: This taxon has been attributed to the genus Pomatoceros by Hartman; however, the diagnosis is poor but might be referrable to Spirobranchus tetraceros. The figure in Michel is of a vermetid. [details] Status: Treated as polychaete by Bieler & Petit (2011: 41). [details] Type locality: Indian Ocean [details] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
