Species Pseudonereis rottnestiana (Augener, 1913)

Generic Combinations

 

Introduction

Pseudonereis rottnestiana was previously synonymised with Pseudonereis anomala by Bakken (2007) on the basis of a lack of morphological difference. However, subsequent studies conducted by Fauvel (1932), Hartman (1954) and Hadiyanto & Glasby (2023) recognised differences in notopodial homogomph falcigers (absence of the feature in P. rottnestiana), which led Hadiyanto & Glasby (2023) to reinstate the species.
