GENUS ZOPHOSCOLEX QUI & BOUCHÉ, 1998

Type species: Zophoscolex atlanticus Bouché, 1972 .

Species included: Zophoscolex albacetensis? Perez Onteniente & Rodriguez Babio, 2010 , Zophoscolex andorranensis? Qiu & Bouché, 1998 , Zophoscolex aragonensis? ( Qiu & Bouché, 1998) comb. nov., Zophoscolex atlanticus Bouché, 1972 , Zophoscolex byanensis? Qiu & Bouché, 1998 , Zophoscolex diazi? Qiu & Bouché, 1998 , Zophoscolex graffi Bouché, 1972 , Zophoscolex micellus Bouché, 1972 , Zophoscolex microprodromos? ( Qiu & Bouché, 1998) comb. nov., Zophoscolex zicsianus? Szederjesi & Csuzdi, 2016 .

Remarks: Species included by Qiu & Bouché (1998 b) within the subgenus Zophoscolex (Zophoscolex) are retained within Zophoscolex , except Zophoscolex zhongi , which was recovered in a different clade by phylogenetic analyses. Zophoscolex andorranensis , Z. byanensis and Z. diazi were not included in the phylogenetic analyses, hence their inclusion is provisional. Zophoscolex aragonensis and Z. microprodromos are transferred from Zophoscolex (Aquilonibericus) to Zophoscolex pending molecular phylogenetic assessment. The species Z. albacetensis and Z. zicsianus are also included as they were not originally assigned to any subgenera; their systematic placement must be confirmed by phylogenetic analyses.
