Present Inaccurate Introduced: alien Containing type locality
From editor or global species database
Etymology Not stated. Gemino -atus is twin or pair in Latin so Geminosyllis is literally a twin (close to) to Syllis [details]
Nomenclature As pointed out by Aguado, Martin & Nishi (2008) Geminosyllis Imajima, (1966) is a superfluous name created by Imajima to replace Trypanoseta. Imajima (1966) apparently did not realise that all he was required to do was promote Trypanoseta to full genus rank from subgenus rank under Trypanosyllis, and instead he created a new genus name. [details]
Synonymy Lattig & Martin (2009:7) placed Geminosyllis (a superfluous replacement name for Trypanoseta) as a synonym of Haplosyllis. [details]
