Editor's comment Though it should await DNA confirmation, in light of Sun and Dong (1998) and Caplins et al (2012) it seems very likely that N. bivittata and N. gracilis are synonyms, with N. bivittata (Delle Chiaje, 1841) having priority for the form in which dorsal stripes do not meet, and N. bullock Coe, 1940 applying to forms in which the stripes do meet anteriorly. [details]Synonymy Nemertopsis gracilis sensu Iwata, 1954a, 1960b and sensu Morton & Morton, 1983 are not synonym to Nemertopsis gracilis Coe, 1904
Nemertopsis gracile sensu Utinomi, 1969 and sensu Morton & Morton, 1983 are no synonyms to Nemertopsis gracilis [details]
