Opercular plate bearing a (fairly long) column ending in a pair of latero-dorsal spines and a bifid medioventral spine, all with tips curved away from the opercular plate. Latero-dorsal spines each bear one pair of short spinules and two unpaired ones, the largest one located latero-ventrally, and the other three located subterminally. Peduncle with wide distal wings with entire edge (no processes). Remarks. Spirobranchus gardineri resembles Sp. richardsmithi in having a column arising from distal plate and bearing three spines/processes distally. However, the three distal processes in Sp. gardineri are less elaborate, and are all directed anteriorly, away from the opercular plate, while the ventral bifurcate spine as well as the proximal side spinules of the two latero-dorsal spines are recurving towards the opercular plate in Sp. richardsmithi . This was noted for the first time by Smith (1985: 43–47, fig. 3 G–H versus I–L), and formalized in a new description by Pillai (2009: 154–158). All records from before the last date should be checked whether or not they belong to Sp. gardineri sensu stricto we have only given references where the identity is clear from either description or figures. Pillai (2009: 182–184, fig. 60 A–G) describes as Spirobranchus sp. 6 a single specimen from the South China Sea with an operculum almost intermediate between those of Sp. gardineri and Sp. richardsmithi , however, more complicated in that the two dorsal spines are bifid as well as the ventral one, which is pointing upward as in Sp. gardineri . It remains to be seen if this falls within the (as yet poorly documented) variability of Sp. gardineri or indeed merits a specific status. Distribution.
