Description
Summary:Anobothrus rubropaleatus n.sp. Figs 10–12 Holotype: Knipovich 258, 34°34‘S, 53°14‘W, 50 m [ZMH-26065]. Paratypes: Knipovich 258, 34°34‘S, 53°14‘W, 50 m (64 specimens, 1 x SEM, complete and incomplete) [ZMH-26066–26067]. Diagnosis: The species is characterized by its bright red paleae even in preserved material, and the lack of notopodia in TS-3. Description: Holotype 6 mm long and 0.5 wide, with 13 AUs, complete. Complete paratypes 2–8 mm long and about 0.1–0.7 mm wide, with 12–13 AUs (Fig. 10 A). Colour in ethanol white, paleae light red. Prostomium trilobed, middle lobe anteriorly rounded, without ridges or eyes (Figs 10 B, 11A). Lower lip not enlarged. Presence of nuchal organs unresolved. Buccal tentacles all retracted. TS-2 bearing about 8–12 reddish paleae, positioned laterally directly below branchiophore ridge (Fig. 11 A, B). TS-2 laterally visible as a prominent lobe from which the paleae originate, otherwise more or less fused to TS-3. TS-3 achaetous. Paleal base distinctly stouter than best ... : Published as part of Schüller, Myriam & Jirkov, Igor A., 2013, New Ampharetidae (Polychaeta) from the deep Southern Ocean and shallow Patagonian waters, pp. 204-237 in Zootaxa 3692 (1) on pages 221-223, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3692.1.11, http://zenodo.org/record/247905 ...
