Six new records of benthic nereidids are presented from a macroinfaunal survey of Singapore mangroves and their associated intertidal flats. Five are first records of the genera for Singapore: Dendronereides zululandica, Dendronereis arborifera, Gymnoereis cf. fauveli, Namalycastis cf. abiuma and Paraleonnates sp. Notably, Namalycastis cf. abiuma represents the first occurrence of the subfamily Namanereidane in Singapore waters. Seventy-four polychaete species from 28 families are currently recorded from Singapore, nereidids being predominant with 19 species. An updated species checklist is presented.
