“…Unfortunately, the holotype of Notopygos crinita [ZMB Verm. 3330] in the Zoologisches Museum, Berlin is lost ( Hartwich 1993 ), so new topotypical materials are needed for a complete redescription, but this is beyond the scope of this study. However, the differences in anus position (21 vs. 23 in Notopygos caribea sp.…”

The species of the genus Notopygos Grube, 1855 are characterized by an ovate body, a prominent caruncle with three lobes, dendritic branchiae, and double dorsal cirri. Twenty-two species belonging to Notopygos have been described, mostly from the Indo-Pacific region. In America, few species are frequently recorded: Notopygos crinita Grube, 1855 from St. Helena Island (Atlantic) and Notopygos ornata Grube and Ørsted in Grube 1857 from Costa Rica (Pacific). Notopygos crinita is a widely distributed species in the Western Atlantic with additional reports in the Mediterranean Sea (as a questionable alien species) and in the Pacific Ocean. However, only the genus features have been considered, consequently some records could be misidentifications. During a revision of materials from collections and the barcode project, ‘Mexican Barcode of Life, MEXBOL’, we found specimens of Notopygos megalops and an undescribed species from reef zones in the Caribbean; the former had been considered a junior synonym of Notopygos crinita. Herein, Notopygos megalops is reestablished and Notopygos caribea sp. n. is described. A morphological and DNA barcode approach was used to explain the records of Notopygos ornata in the Atlantic and to show the differences with the new species, since both species share features such as complex pigmentation patterns, and circular projections in the median lobe of the caruncle.

“…Information available about type deposition was also included based upon publications (Potin 1977, Wiktor 1980, Harada 1991, Bleeker & van der Spoel 1992, Hartwich 1993, Wallin 1996, Solís-Weiss et al 2004, Nishi & Tanaka 2011 or after information provided by collection managers. No distinction was made about the kind of type specimens (holotype, paratype, syntypes); their relative relevance may differ but some might not be available for taxonomic revisions.…”

The South China and Philippine Seas are among the most diverse regions in the Western Pacific. Although there are several local polychaete checklists available, there is none comprising the whole of this region. Presented herein is a comprehensive list of the original names of all polychaete species described from the region. The list contains 1037 species, 345 genera and 60 families; the type locality, type depository, and information regarding synonymy are presented for each species.

“…When this collection was dissolved, many annelids were transferred to the Zoologischen Museum Berlin in 1929. However, some types were lost during World War II (Hartwich 1993). The type material of the species may be no longer available.…”

Neanthes Kinberg, 1865 is a speciose nereidid genus with some species exhibiting epitoky during the timing of reproduction. The epitokal morphology of males and females has long been agreed to be diagnostic to distinguish species. In the present study, we provide redescriptions of the type material and reassess the current taxonomic status of four Neanthes species originally described based on the reproductive forms of specimens collected from Southeast Asia: Neanthes augeneri (Gravier & Dantan, 1934), N. gisserana (Horst, 1924), N. trifasciata (Grube, 1878) and N. trifasciata vandersandei (Horst, 1924). The non-metamorphosed and epitokous diagnostic features, including new characters found in this study, were used to redescribe and distinguish these species from other congeners. The four species are here recognised in Neanthes, whereby N. vandersandei is elevated to species level. Neanthes gisserana is considered as distinct from its previous senior synonym N. rubicunda (Ehlers, 1868). Morphology of both N. trifasciata and N. vandersandei, originally described based on mixed species, is restricted. Additionally, some remarks on the status of N. thysanota (Ehlers, 1908) are given. Distributional and reproductive data of the reviewed species are provided. An updated checklist of 80 valid species in Neanthes and synoptic tables of diagnostic features including the atokous and epitokous morphology are also presented.
