Etymology Not stated. The name Spiophanes seems to be composed by the generic name Spio Fabricius, 1785, the type genus of the family Spionidae, followed by the Greek suffix phanes, which has many meanings relating to light, shining, visibility or distinctness (see Brown, 1954 'Composition of Scientific Words'; for example Nyctiphanes' is a night-visible crustacean) and presumably relates in some way Spiophanes kroyeri Grube, 1860, the type of the new genus, as similar but distinct from the species in the genus Spio: ''Diese neue Gattung gehört jedenfalls in die Nähe von Nerine und Spio'' (Grube, 1860: 89). Phanes as a separate name is also the name of the Greek mythology masculine primeval deity of procreation and the generation of new life, but this link seems unlikely to apply to the usage here.  [details]

Diagnosis Original diagnosis by Grube (1860: 88): ''Corpus vermiforme, subteres, segmentis brevibus. Lobus capitalis segmento buccali penitus impressus, postice attenuatus , tentaculo postico brevi 1, oculis nullis. Segmentum buccale setis nudum, cirris tentacularibus 2 dorsualibus, labo capitali distentis. Pharynx exsertilis brevis (?). Fasciculi setarum utrinque distichi, e basi labii foliacei progerminantes, segmentorum omnium subaequales, nec vero in omnibus pariter locati, in prioribus dorsuales, in ceteris ad latera descendentes. Setae simplices, uncini nulli.''

Etymology Not stated. The name Spiophanes seems to be composed by the generic name Spio Fabricius, 1785, the type genus of the family Spionidae, followed by the Greek suffix phanes, which has many meanings relating to light, shining, visibility or distinctness (see Brown, 1954 'Composition of Scientific Words'; for example Nyctiphanes' is a night-visible crustacean) and presumably relates in some way Spiophanes kroyeri Grube, 1860, the type of the new genus, as similar but distinct from the species in the genus Spio: ''Diese neue Gattung gehört jedenfalls in die Nähe von Nerine und Spio'' (Grube, 1860: 89). Phanes as a separate name is also the name of the Greek mythology masculine primeval deity of procreation and the generation of new life, but this link seems unlikely to apply to the usage here.  [details]

Grammatical gender Unresolved. Spiophanes has been treated as masculine by modern authors, notably by Meißner, the revisor of the genus, but variably by earlier authors without any of them overtly stating the gender (Hartman created both masculine and feminine adjectival names). Spio itself is feminine, named after a female mythological entity. Foster (1971: 40) states the genus Spiophanes is masculine, without more detail as to why, and perhaps this has influenced later workers. The ICZN code has no guidance on gender treatment of -phanes used as a suffix. [details]
