 Present  Inaccurate  Introduced: alien  Containing type locality 
From editor or global species database
Diagnosis Body elongated; prostomium T-shaped, one asetigerous segment present. Eyes present. Branchiae present. Acicular spines in first setiger; capillary and furcate setae present.  [details]

Etymology Scler- or Sclero-, new Latin from Greek skler- or sklero-, meaning 'hard', and Bregma, new Latin bregmat-, bregma, from late Latin, from Greek brechmos, meaning 'front part of the head', making reference to the presence of acicular spines in the anterior region of the worm.  [details]

Grammatical gender All genus names ending in -bregma in the Scalibregmatidae are neuter. Hartman (1965) correctly creates an neuter adjectival species-group name of branchiatum, but subsequently (e.g. Hartman & Fauchald, 1971: 129) a changed spelling to 'branchiata' appears, without explanation. This spelling is not correct. [details]
