Genus Euzonus Grube, 1866 View in CoL

Euzonus Grube, 1866: 43 View in CoL , 64. Type species: Euzonus arcticus View in CoL , by original designation. Preoccupied by Euzonus Menge, 1854: 14 View in CoL (Diplopoda, Chordeumatida View in CoL )

Thoracophelia Ehlers, 1897: 7 View in CoL , 101. Type species: Thoracophelia furcifera Ehlers, 1897 View in CoL , by original designation; considered a subgenus of Euzonus Grube, 1866 View in CoL by Hartman (1956: 293).

Pectinophelia Hartman, 1938: 108 View in CoL . Type species: Pectinophelia dillonensis Hartman, 1938 , by original designation. Junior subjective synonym of Euzonus Grube, 1866 View in CoL according to Hartman (1959: 434).

Hartman (1938: 103) described the genus Pectinophelia and listed distinguishing characters between the genera Pectinophelia and Thoracophelia View in CoL . Hartman (1944) considered both genera closely related. The polychaete genus Thoracophelia Ehlers, 1897 View in CoL was treated as a subgenus of Euzonus Grube, 1866 View in CoL by Hartman (1956: 293) who cited distinguishing features between members of the subgenera Thoracophelia View in CoL and ‘ Euzonus sensu stricu . ’ Later, Hartman (1959: 434) synonymized Pectinophelia under ‘ Euzonus View in CoL .’ In subsequent publications, the subgeneric structure of Euzonus Grube, 1866 View in CoL was mostly maintained (e.g. Hartman 1966: 51, 1967: 137 and Rozbaczylo & Zamorano 1970) but not always (e.g. Blake 2000; Misaka & Sato 2003; and Hartmann-Schröder 1971: 383 who placed the genera Euzonus View in CoL and Ophelia Savigny, 1818 View in CoL in the then new subfamily Opheliinae View in CoL without any reference to the subgenus Thoracophelia View in CoL ). In a subsequent publication, Hartmann-Schröder & Parker (1995: 2) refer to the subgenus again.

Currently, 15 species are placed in Euzonus Grube, 1866 ( Fauchald & Bellan 2009) :
