Taxonomy Kupriyanova et al (2015:315) "This small species occurs cryptically, it is reminiscent of S. pomatostegoides, but with very different operculum, simple transparent inverted cone lacking any chitinous enforcement. The most distinct character of this species is the tube with one or several consecutive pairs of hollow "pipes" anteriorly. These hollow chambers on top break easily and only rarely remain intact, but the remaining tube, with its flattened chambered sides, is typical enough. The function of these pipes is unclear, they clearly resemble brood chambers found in other small serpulids, but we actually observed lecithotrophic larvae of various stages (Fig. 19G) being brooded inside the tubes proper, not in the chambers. The thoracic uncini are saw-to-rasp shaped, which is typical for Semivermilia. Abdominal chaetae were looked for under SEM in three specimens, but not observed, so assumed absent." [details]
