Ordo: Phyllodocida
Familia: Nereididae
Genus: Websterinereis
Name
Websterinereis foli (Fauvel, 1930) – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Leptonereis foli Fauvel, 1930: 520, fig. 3.
- Websterinereis foli. – Pettibone 1971[1]: 23–25, figs 10, 11.
- Nicon sp. – Martens et al. 1995[2]: 17, figs 20–24.
Type locality
Ile de Pins, New Caledonia.
Remarks
The specimens reported as Nicon sp. by Martens et al (1995)[2] are almost certainly Websterinereis foli. We reached this conclusion based on a comparison of their figures of parapodia and chaetae with those of Pettibone (1971[1]: figs 10, 11) and their description of the pigmentation pattern compared to that described for this species by Pettibone (1971[1]: fig. 10a) and Glasby (2015[3]: figs 42, 43). Martens et al. (1995)[2] are likely to have overlooked the pharyngeal (oral ring) papillae in their specimens as they are very small and only observable when the pharynx is fully everted: this explains the incorrect generic assignment.
Distribution
Western Pacific, Indonesia, Lizard Island (Australia).
