Nomenclature Hartman catalogue (1959:525) suggests "perhaps Eupolymnia sp." for Terebella kermadecensis, but it appears to be indeterminable from the original description, and she did not include T. kermadecensis in her listing for Eupolymnia. There is thus insufficient justification for such a recombination as valid name. [details]
