Remarks

Wolf (1984) recorded Psammolyce ctenidophora (= Dayipsammolyce ctenidophora ) from eastern Florida, in the Gulf of Mexico; later, Pettibone (1997) stated that his description did not agree with this species, without further comment. The specimens recorded by Wolf (1984) were described and illustrated with features that resemble those of Neopsammolyce and Dayipsammolyce . For instance, the prostomium, neurochaetae and second elytra agree with those of D. paulayi sp. nov. However, his illustration of neurochaetae from anterior segments and the statement that some specimens lack ctenidia on the base of the median antennal ceratophore differ from Dayipsammolyce but fit with Neopsammolyce . This record should be revised.
