Onuphid polychaetes associated with the Cymodocea nodosameadows of La Gomera (Canary Islands, NW Africa) – new species and new records from the eastern North Atlantic
This study recognizes six species of onuphid polychaetes associated with the Cymodocea nodosa meadows of the Canary Islands. Of these, three species of the genus Aponuphis, A. bilineata, A. brementi and A. ornata have been previously reported from the eastern North Atlantic, whilst A. willsiei was o...
