Syllinae indet.

Diagnosis.

Specimen incomplete, damaged, ~ 10 mm long, 0.8 mm wide for 69 chaetigers, all antennae and chaetal blades missing. Palps free to base, two pairs of eyes, plus a minute pair of anterior eyespots. Pharynx everted with a single dorsal tooth just below papillated rim. A few anterior dorsal cirri remaining, with short thin articles. Parapodia uniramous, with heterogomph compound chaetae, blades unknown.

Remarks.

This specimen is too damaged to be identified. It does not appear to be the same as Syllis sp. 2, which has longer dorsal cirri and which was collected at the same operation.
