From editor or global species database
Type species Kinberg (1865: 174) placed P. gallapagensis and P. formosa as new species in new genus Pseudonereis. Later Hartman (1948: 68) silently made the first named species, P. gallapagensis, the type of the genus. This was her usual practice in such cases of no original designation. [details]

From editor or global species database
Diagnosis A bar-shaped paragnath in Area VI differs from the traditionally described low, smooth bar in Perinereis. In Pseudonereis it appears as a laterally flattened, high bar usually with a pointed tip. The tip is often, but not always, skewed over to one end.Maxillary ring of pharynx with paragnaths, arranged in discrete areas, Areas II–IV p-bars and conical paragnaths arranged in regular comb-like rows. Oral ring paragnaths present, Area V conical paragnaths present or absent; Area VI conical paragnaths present or absent, shield-shaped bars present or absent; Area VII–VIII p-bars and conical paragnaths present. Dorsal notopodial ligule markedly elongate and markedly broader on posterior chaetigers. Dorsal cirrus terminally attached to dorsal notopodial ligule on posterior chaetigers (subterminally in P. anomala). Neuropodial superior lobe present (absent in P. palpata and P. pseudonoodti).
