Oxydromus Grube, 1855 Oxydromus Grube, 1855: 98; Villalobos-Guerrero & Harris, 2012: 23. Ophiodromus Sars, 1862: 87; Pleijel, 1998: 137 –143. Type species : Oxydromus fasciatus Grube, 1855, by monotypy. Diagnosis (modified from Pleijel 1998; Parapar et al . 2004): Ophiodrominae with uniform brown pigmentation occasionally with transversal whitish stripes; prostomium rounded to rectangular with facial tubercle, a pair of biarticulate palpi, and bearing three antennae, with the median antenna frontally inserted; six pairs of enlarged tentacular cirri; pharynx without papillae or jaws; prolonged neuropodial lobes; notopodia and notochaetae absent from segments 1 to 5; furcated and capillary simple notochaetae; composed neurochaetae. Remarks. Villalobos-Guerrero & Harris (2012) have reinstated Oxydromus over Ophiodromus because the former was erroneously regarded a junior homonym of Oxydromus Schlegel, 1854 (Aves, Gruiformes, Rallidae), which was an incorrect subsequent spelling of Ocydromus Wagler, 1830.

Gyptis incompta Ehlers, 1913 (not 1912 which is a nomen nudum fide Hartman 1964) is listed under Oxydromus in WoRMS but it belongs in Gyptis . 2) Ophiodromus longocirratus Tenerelli, 1973 is a 2 mm long juvenile, perhaps of a Mediterranean Gyptis species. : Published as part of Rizzo, Alexandra E. & Salazar-Vallejo, Sergio I., 2014, Hesionidae Grube, 1850 (Annelida: Polychaeta) from South-Southeastern Brazil, with descriptions of four new species, pp. 267-291 in Zootaxa 3856 (2) on pages 280-281, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3856.2.7, http://zenodo.org/record/231424 : {"references": ["Grube, A.
