Genus Gallardoneris Carrera-Parra, 2006

Type species.

Lumbrineris shinoii Gallardo, 1968

Diagnosis.

Emended from Carrera-Parra (2006a). Lumbrinerids lacking antennae and branchiae, with (?) or without anal cirri. Notopodia slightly developed. Maxillary apparatus with four pairs of maxillae; MI forceps-like lacking internal accessory teeth, wide base, lacking attachment lamella; MII as long as MI, with ligament, lacking attachment lamella and connecting plates with MI; MIII completely pigmented, with a narrow attachment lamella along 1/4 of its posterior lateral edge; MIV with a whitish central area and narrow attachment lamella; carriers joined to entire base of MI; mandibles totally fused. Simple and composite multidentate hooded hooks present; limbate simple multidentate hooded hooks absent.

Remarks.

Gallardoneris was originally diagnosed as having anal cirri, but they were not described or pictured for any of the species originally included in the genus ( Gallardo 1968; Carrera-Parra 2006a), while they are absent in G. nonatoi comb. nov. Therefore, it is not possible to state whether the genus can be exclusively characterized by lacking anal cirri, as occurs in the European specimens. Consequently, the dual possibility (having or lacking anal cirri) is kept in the diagnosis, though the genus probably lacks them.
