The genus Harpagonchus ( Figure 4 View FIGURE 4 ) was established by Platonova & Potin (1972) when H. averincevi and H. simillis were described. All species of this genus were collected from the sub Antarctic and Antarctic polychaete worms of the species Aglaophamus macroura ( Schmarda, 1861) (Nephtydae) .

Diagnosis (modified from Decraener & Smol 2006 and Tchesunov 2014): Cuticle homogenous without lateral differentiation. Amphideal fovea unknown. Buccal cavity armed with three motile mandibles with hooks. Pharynx posteriorly widened but not forming a true terminal bulb. Cup-shaped midventral precloacal supplementary organs present in males.

Number of valid species: 2.
