Notes

Fauvel (1923) considered Nereis lamellosa Ehlers 1868 a synonym of Nereis succinea but revoked this synonymy in a subsequent publication, describing the differentiating characters ( Fauvel 1936b). Later authors (e.g. Day 1967, Campoy 1982) continued to treat the species as synonymous. Thus, many reports of Alitta succinea may actually contain specimens of Nereis lamellosa , which in turn is probably underreported in the Mediterranean ( Arvanitidis 2000a).
