Haplosyllis palpata Verrill, 1900 View in CoL

Haplosyllis palpata Verrill, 1900: 614 View in CoL ; Licher 1999.

Type material. Bermudas, Caribbean Sea. 1 Syntype (?) YPM 23002.

Remarks. It has not been possible to check the validity of Haplosyllis palpata because: 1) the YPM could not confirm that the specimen marked on the microslide really corresponds to a syntype of the species, as it was mixed with specimens clearly belonging to H. cephalata ; 2) the specimen is a juvenile, with most anterior cirri broken and the chaetae in a position that makes difficult accurate observations; 3) the original description lacks illustrations and does not provide enough information to characterize the species; 4) there is no other registered material.
