Editor's comment: Molecular data suggests D. hesionides is not a Chrysopetalid. However the author interprets his data differently. Quote (p.271) "Both analyses agree on the non-monophyly of chrysopetalids, because Dysponetus hesionides sp. nov. is sister to Syllidae and not grouped with Dysponetus caecus (Langerhans)." This seems to be a debatable interpretation, since the placement of the species in Dysponetus rather than elsewhere on morphology alone was the author's decision to make. [details] Etymology: Epithet reflects the great similarity of this species to members of the Hesionidae. To be treated as a noun in apposition, therefore as indeclinable, for the purposes of nomenclature. [details] Type locality: Cape Basin, South East Atlantic, 28° 6' 42? S, 7° 20' 48? E (-28.111667°, 7.346667°), 5030m. [details] | |||||||
