Pygospio elegans Claparède, 1863: 37 View in CoL .— Foster, 1971a: 29 –32, figs 37–47, table 2.

Type locality. Normandy Coast, France.

Type material. Not found.

Records. México: off Veracruz ( Foster 1971a).

Remarks. Claparède (1863) described briefly to Pygospio elegans , however, shape of prostomium and branchiae from P. elegans is different to prostomium and branchiae of the specimenes from Gulf of Mexico. The type material is not available, and as a result specimens recorded from the Grand Caribbean are questionable
