| Summary: | Diopatra brevicirris Grube, 1857 nomen dubium Diopatra brevicirris Grube, 1857: 55.— Grube 1878: 6. Material examined. None available. Type locality. Madeira. Diagnosis. Antennae short, ceratophores 1/2 to 1/3 of total length, lateral antennae to segment 3 (?chaetiger 2), median slightly shorter. Peristomial cirri minute, papilla-like, not longer than 1/3 of ceratophores of palps. Dorsal cirri of parapodia very short, hardly longer than branchial stem thick. Branchiae from chaetiger 4, branchial stem very thick, filaments very short, hardly longer than width of branchial stem, third and fourth pairs longer than body width, almost 12 times as long as dorsal cirrus, last branchia from chaetiger 28. Remarks. Diopatra brevicirris was described from Madeira on the basis of one incomplete specimen measuring 5 cm in length for 63 chaetigers and 3 mm in width, and remains the only record of this species. The species was characterised by having short antennae, minute peristomial cirri, short dorsal cirri and ... : 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 531-532, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4300.4.3, http://zenodo.org/record/839214 ... |
