Do we know who they are? On the identity of Pholoe (Annelida: Sigalionidae: Pholoinae) species from northern Europe
Abstract Pholoe species described from northern European coastal waters are studied here, based on morphological and molecular methods. We confirm the current taxonomic status of P. assimilis, P. baltica, P. inornata and P. pallida. All species descriptions are reviewed and refined, barcodes are pro...
