Diagnosis Phyllodocidae with uniramous parapodia, four pairs of filiform tentacular cirri and five antennae. Tentacular segments free of each other, the first dorsally reduced to varying degrees. Setal formula: l+S1/1 +S1/N. Proboscis with papillae, arranged proximally in diffuse pattern and distally in six broad longitudinal rows. Ventral parapodial cirrus very large, its long axis markedly oblique, or at right angle, to acicula. [details]
Publication date Banse (1974:93 in Banse & Hobson) intended to erect Bergstroemia as a subgenus of Eulalia. However, Banse (1973) in which he raised Bergstroemia from subgenus to genus, was published first, when Banse & Hobson content was presumably unchangeable in press. Evidently Banse (1973) was aware this would happen as he included the 1974 date in his synonymy "Eulalia (Bergstroemia):Banse, 1974, in Banse and Hobson, 1974, p. 92" [details]
