Type-species. Lanicola lobata Hartmann-Schröder, 1986 View in CoL , by monotypy.

Diagnosis. Transverse prostomium attached to dorsal surface of upper lip; basal part sometimes with eyespots; distal part shelf-like. Buccal tentacles shorter than body. Peristomium forming lips; hood-like upper lip; small, swollen lower lip, restricted to oral area. Segment 1 reduced dorsally, developed ventrally, with ventral lobe inserted marginally to mouth. Anterior margins of anterior segments, beginning from segment 2, as swollen crests ventrally, more developed on segment 2; pair of lobes shared by segments 2–3, originally from segment 3, dorsal margins originating from segment 3, ventral margins fused to ventral shield of segment 2, with conspicuous scar at line of fusion extending until segment 3. Paired dorso-lateral arborescent branchiae present on segments 2 and 3, 2 pairs. Anterior segments with glandular, rectangular to trapezoidal, smooth to slightly corrugated mid-ventral shields; mid-ventral groove extending posteriorly from termination of mid-ventral shields. Short and conical notopodia beginning from segment 4, extending for 17 segments, until segment 20. Narrowly-winged notochaetae in both rows throughout. Neuropodia present from segment 5, as low ridges throughout, or only until termination of notopodia and as low pinnules thereafter. Neurochaetae throughout as short-handled avicular uncini, arranged in partially to completely intercalated double rows from segment 11 until termination of notopodia, on segment 20; uncini with dorsal button at mid-length of base, conspicuous at least until termination of notopodia, and crest with several transverse rows of secondary teeth. Nephridial papillae on segments 3 and 4, genital papillae on segments 6 and 7, posterior to notopodia and dorsal. Pygidium smooth to slightly crenulate ( Capa & Hutchings 2006).

Remarks. Capa & Hutchings (2006) emended the diagnosis of Lanicola after the study of type material, described two additional species, and synonymized Paraeupolymnia , with three more species, with Lanicola .

Therefore, this genus currently includes six species and we describe herein a seventh species from Lizard Island, the second occurring in Australian waters.
