Diagnosis Emended by Maciolek & Blake (2006):"Body divided externally into two regions: an anterior cylindrical region and a posterior region with a deep ventral and two lateral grooves. Prostomium a small pointed cone, lacking appendages; pair of nuchal organs on posterior lateral border. Branchiae present or absent; branchiae, if present, cirriform with single or, rarely, double filaments, present from chaetigers 2 or 8–11, absent from a few posterior preanal segments. Chaetae all simple capillaries; parapodia low rounded lobes. Lateral sensory organs present between parapodial rami. Anal segment with papillae." [details] Unreviewed
