Type-species. Polydora antennata Claparède, 1868 , by monotypy.

Remarks. Pseudopolydora Czerniavsky, 1881 currently comprises 18 species of polydorin spionids that usually inhabit tubes on the intertidal and in shallow water in estuarine environments.

Four Pseudopolydora species were reported from the Australian waters, comprising P. antennata (Claparède, 1868) , P. paucibranchiata ( Okuda, 1937) , Pseudopolydora kempi (Southern, 1921), and Pseudopolydora glandulosa Blake & Kudenov, 1978 ( Blake & Kudenov 1978 2; Hutchings & Rainer 1979; Hartmann-Schröder 1981, 1983; Hutchings & Murray 1984; Hutchings & Turvey 1984; Hewitt et al. 2004). Pseudopolydora glandulosa was originally described from Victoria, Australia, and also reported from Queensland and New South Wales ( Blake & Kudenov 1978; Hutchings & Murray 1984). The other three species were originally described from Italy, Japan, and India, respectively.
