Notes

Questionable status. Species complex. Terebellides stroemii is a species complex of pseudo-cryptic species ( Parapar and Hutchings 2014). Çınar (2005) re-examined some specimens from Cyprus previously identified as Terebellides stroemii and compared them to material collected near the type locality. He concluded that two or three different species of Terebellides occur along the coast of Cyprus. Parapar et al. (2013) re-investigated material from the Adriatic, found Terebellides gracilis (Malm, 1874) to be present in the area and additionally described a new species, Terebellides mediterranea Parapar, Mikac & Fiege, 2013. Thus, specimens reported in the Mediterranean under the name Terebellides stroemii certainly belong to different species.
