Treatment

Autolytus roseus Claparède, 1864: 566 –567, pl. 7, fig. 4; Langerhans 1879: 577; Fauvel 1923: 322, fig. 123E–G.

Not Autolytus roseus Okada 1933a: 641 –645, fig. 1 (= Epigamia View in CoL sp)

Distribution. Mediterranean.

Remarks. Types do not exist. Female stolon, length 10 mm for?8+13+40 chaetigers. Tentacular cirri 2 pairs, achaetous knobs not described. Antennae and dorsal cirri red, tentacular cirri uncoloured, red intrasegmental ( Claparède 1864: fig. 4) band across each segment; eggs blue. General body shape with a long posterior region, indicates that this is a stolon of Proceraea type. It is possible that this is the female stolon of Langerhans' P. madeirensis . The colour in P. madeirensis is described as brown, but red and brown may sometimes be difficult to separate. In that case Claparède's name would have priority.
