“…Two short expeditions to the Seychellan island Mahé in 1999 and 2000 revealed a considerably diverse fauna of interstitial polychaetes (Böggemann et al 2003), of which a number of species have already been determined and published (Westheide 2000a, b;2001;Westheide and HassCordes 2001;Böggemann and Westheide 2004). As in most of such sandy shallow water habitats around the world, the fauna also comprises a species of the genus Microphthalmus Mecznikow, 1865, confirming the already known highly cosmopolitan distribution of this taxon, from Antarctica (Bick 1997(Bick /1998) to various tropical coastal areas.…”

“…In the Mediterranean also known from Lebanon (Aguado and San Martín 2007) and Turkey (Çınar et al 2014), otherwise it has a circumtropical distribution (e.g. San Martín 1991, Nogueira et al 2004, Böggemann and Westheide 2004). The Eastern Mediterranean records make an occurrence of Exogone breviantennata in Greece likely, however, as it is very similar to the Mediterranean Exogone verugera (Claparède, 1868), (distinguished from the latter mainly by the presence of a dorsal cirrus on the second chaetiger (Aguado and San Martín 2007)), additional specimens are needed to confirm its presence.…”

BackgroundThe last annotated checklist of marine polychaetes in Greece was published in 2001. Since then, global taxonomic progress, combined with many new species records for Greece, required a thorough review of the taxonomic, nomenclatural and biogeographic status of the national species list. This checklist revises the status of all extant polychaete species reported from the Greek Exclusive Economic Zone since 1832. The work was undertaken as part of the efforts on compiling a national species inventory (Greek Taxon Information System initiative) in the framework of the LifeWatchGreece Research Infrastructure.New informationThis checklist comprises an updated and annotated inventory of polychaete species in Greek waters, compiled from literature reports, online databases, museum collections and unpublished datasets. The list provides information on 836 species-level taxa from Greece, of which 142 are considered questionable. An additional 84 species reported in the past are currently considered absent from Greece; reasons for the exclusion of each species are given. Fourteen species are reported here for the first time from Greek waters. At least 52 species in the present list constitute in fact a complex of cryptic or pseudo-cryptic species. Forty-seven species are considered non-native to the area. In addition to the species-level taxa reported in this checklist, eleven genera have been recorded from Greece with no representatives identified to species level. One replacement name is introduced. For each species, a comprehensive bibliographic list of occurrence records in Greece and the synonyms used in these publications are provided as supplementary material. Where necessary, the taxonomic, nomenclatural or biogeographic status is discussed. Finally, the findings are discussed in the wider context of Mediterranean polychaete biogeography, taxonomic practice and worldwide research progress.

O presente estudo fornece o primeiro checklist concentrado nas espécies de Syllidae registradas no Brasil, com base em pesquisas extensas na literatura. Dados sobre a distribuição no Brasil e no mundo são apresentados, além do habitat e material de cada espécie depositado em coleções brasileiras. Foi registrado um total de 96 espécies de 28 gêneros e quatro subfamílias. Considerando a grande extensão costeira do Brasil e as diversas áreas ainda pobremente estudadas, podemos esperar uma diversidade total de silídeos muito maior do que o atualmente conhecido.
