Abstract | Twenty five species of polynoid scaleworms were collected from the waters in and around the Chesterfields and Fairway Atolls during the cruise CORAIL 2 of the R/V Coriolis in July 1988. Two new genera, Verrucapelma, and Heteralentia, and nine new species, Subadyte chesterfieldensis, Harmothoe turbinata, Harmothoe vesicudenta, Harmothoe spongicola, Verrucapelma retusa, Iphione coriolis, Lepidonotus scanlandi, Lepidonotus spinosus and Lepidonotus permixturus are described. Keys to the polynoid scaleworm fauna of the Chesterfields and Fairways are provided, and all twenty five species are described and illustrated. |
