Editor's comment Perhaps a nomen dubium as Augener (in text) is uncertain if the museum specimen he describes and calls Lepidonotus yorkianus is the same specimen previously named Polynoe contaminata by Grube (1876). Hartman catalogue (1959: 100) places Polynoe contaminata as "questionably Lepidonotus yorkianus" but this is not possible as P. contaminata is the senior name.
