Extra Distribution Information

The Australian record from Broome Hartmann-Schröder, G. 1979. Teil 2. Die Polychaeten der tropischen Nordwestküste Australiens (zwischen Derby im Norden und Port Hedland im Süden). In Hartmann-Schröder, G. & Hartmann, G. Zur Kenntnis des Eulitorals der australischen Küsten unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Polychaeta. Mitteilungen aus dem Hamburgischen Zoologischen Museum und Institut. 75–218 pp. is Glycera lancadivae, however, because of the inadequate original description of G.lancadivae by Schmarda (1861) an exact classification is impossible. Böggemann, M. 2002. Revision of the Glyceridae Grube 1850 (Annelida: Polychaeta). Abhandlungen der Senckenbergischen Naturforschenden Gesellschaft 555: 1–249 believes this specimen is G.brevicirris, but he never examined it.
