GENUS ZOPHOSCOLEX QUI & BOUCHÉ, 1998

Type species: Zophoscolex atlanticus Bouché, 1972 .

Species included: Zophoscolex albacetensis? Perez Onteniente & Rodriguez Babio, 2010 , Zophoscolex andorranensis? Qiu & Bouché, 1998 , Zophoscolex aragonensis? ( Qiu & Bouché, 1998) comb. nov., Zophoscolex atlanticus Bouché, 1972 , Zophoscolex byanensis? Qiu & Bouché, 1998 , Zophoscolex diazi? Qiu & Bouché, 1998 , Zophoscolex graffi Bouché, 1972 , Zophoscolex micellus Bouché, 1972 , Zophoscolex microprodromos? ( Qiu & Bouché, 1998) comb. nov., Zophoscolex zicsianus? Szederjesi & Csuzdi, 2016 .

Remarks: Species included by Qiu & Bouché (1998 b) within the subgenus Zophoscolex ( Zophoscolex) are retained within Zophoscolex , except Zophoscolex zhongi , which was recovered in a different clade by phylogenetic analyses. Zophoscolex andorranensis , Z. byanensis and Z. diazi were not included in the phylogenetic analyses, hence their inclusion is provisional. Zophoscolex aragonensis and Z. microprodromos are transferred from Zophoscolex ( Aquilonibericus) to Zophoscolex pending molecular phylogenetic assessment. The species Z. albacetensis and Z. zicsianus are also included as they were not originally assigned to any subgenera; their systematic placement must be confirmed by phylogenetic analyses.
