Polychaeta from the Vicinity of Deep-sea Hydrothermal Vents in the Eastern Pacific. II. New Species and Records from the Juan de Fuca and Explorer Ridge Systems

A total of 15 genera and species distributed in 10 families of Polychaeta is reported from hydrothermal vent sites on the Juan de Fuca and Explorer ridges off British Columbia and Washington. One genus and 10 species are new to science. New taxa include Protomystides verenae (Phyllodocidae), Nereis...
