OTHER REPORTED NAMES: Ehlersia cornuta (Rathke, 1843) ; Langerhansia cornuta (Rathke 1843) . REMARKS: This species was commonly reported from both hard and soft bottoms in the whole Adriatic Sea. According to Licher (1999) and San Martín (2003), S. cornuta is not present in the Mediterranean Sea, being typical of boreal regions. San Martín (2003) assigned the previous records of the species that were based on Campoy's (1982) description of S. cornuta to S. parapari San Martín & López, 2000. Mikac and Musco (2010) hypothesized that the previous records of S. cornuta in the NA possibly refer to S. beneliahuae ( Campoy & Alquézar, 1982) , S. rosea Langerhans, 1879 , S. garciai ( Campoy, 1982) or S. parapari .

® Syllis parapari San Martín & López, 2000

DISTRIBUTION: NA.

NEW RECORDS: BM52, BM53, BM54, BM65, BM66.

REMARKS: These are the first records from the Adriatic Sea. According to San Martín (2003) the previous findings of Syllis cornuta (Rathke, 1843) in the Mediterranean Sea should be attributed to S. parapari . It is also possible that at least some of the former Adriatic findings of S. cornuta , especially those from the soft bottoms, belong to S. parapari ( Mikac & Musco 2010) . Analyses of some specimens collected within the present research and firstly determined as S. alosae San Martín, 1992, were re-examined by G. San Martín and revealed to be S. parapari . Syllis alosae was originally described from the Caribbean Sea ( San Martín 1992), and although it has been cited in some papers for the Mediterranean area, its presence in the Mediterranean is considered doubtful, since no taxonomic re-descriptions from the European waters are up to now available (WoRMS 2014). Thus previous records of S. alosae in the southern Adriatic by Castelli et al. (2008) and Giangrande et al. (2003) are herein considered erroneous identifications, as they may refer to S. parapari .

REMARKS: Following the proposal of Licher (1999), Syllis zonata Haswell, 1883 and S. bouvieri Gravier, 1900 (reported in Fraschetti et al. 2002; Giangrande et al. 2003, 2004) are here considered as synonyms of S. prolifera . However, according to Castelli et al. (2008) S. zonata and S. bouvieri could be valid species.
