Homonymy For a time Eunice concinna Zanol, Hutchings & Fauchald, 2020 was junior homonym to Eunice concinna (Verrill, 1900). The secondary homonymy is resolved at present as Eunice concinna (Verrill, 1900) should be returned to Leodice (Verrill's species has strongly beaded antennae thus is truly a Leodice) [details]
