Nuchal grooves crescentic to almost circular; peristomial cirri usually present, rarely absent. Anterior three to five (rarely seven) pairs of parapodia modified, slightly enlarged, rarely with double postchaetal lobes. Small ventral parapodial lobes on chaetigers 5–25 in some species; ventral cirri on anterior four to six chaetigers, dorsal cirri long to very long. Branchiae from chaetiger 4–5, filaments arranged spirally around stem. Hooks of modified parapodia simple to ... : Published as part of Paxton, Hannelore & Arias, Andres, 2017, Unveiling a surprising diversity of the genus Diopatra Audouin & Milne Edwards, 1833 (Annelida: Onuphidae) in the Macaronesian region (eastern North Atlantic) with the description of four new species, pp. 505-535 in Zootaxa 4300 (4) on pages 506-508, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4300.4.3, http://zenodo.org/record/839214 ...
