Cirrosyllis tuberculata Schmarda, 1861: 76 , pl. 28, fig. 223.? Autolytus tuberculatus Augener 1918: 307 –308; Day 1953, 421; 1960: 318; 1967: 281–283, fig. 12.12 G–J.

Distribution. South Africa.

Remarks. Type material do not exist. Schmarda's description is very brief, and it is not possible to determine the status of the taxon from it. It is, however described to lack tentacular cirri. Augener redescribed what he thought was Schmarda's type specimen, and found two pairs of tentacular cirri. It seems likely that Augener did not look at the type specimen. Day's descriptions refers to Augener's interpretation of C. tuberculatus .
