Abstract

The number of Ampharetidae species recorded in Russia’s Far Eastern seas is growing rapidly: 24 in 1955, 33 in 2013, and 79 in 2026. A new user-friendly key has been compiled for most genera of world fauna, and new user-friendly keys for all species of Ampharetidae from the Far Eastern seas identified to species are proposed. A new species, Amythas temerevae sp.n., is described.
