Genus Branchiosyllis Ehlers, 1887 View in CoL
Branchiosyllis Ehlers, 1887: 148 View in CoL .— San Martín, 2003: 332. Type species. Branchiosyllis oculata Ehlers, 1887 View in CoL .
Remarks. Branchiosyllis currently comprises 11 species. Six species are excluded for different reasons: Branchiosyllis fuscosuturata (Augener, 1922) , B. uncinigera ( Hartmann-Schröder, 1960) and B. plessisi (Rullier, 1972) have been considered synonyms of B. exilis by Westheide (1974), confirmed by other authors ( Licher, 1999; San Martín et al., submitted); B. abranchiata (Hartmann-Schröder, 1965) is not considered a valid species (it is a juvenile specimen: San Martín et al., submitted) and B. salina (Hartmann-Schröder, 1959) probably should be transferred to Opisthosyllis Langerhans, 1879 (after examination of holotype, HZM P-14574).
