摘要

Abstract

A taxonomic survey of benthic marine animals from coastal regions of Hainan Island

South China Sea

revealed specimens of a new species of Eunice (Polychaeta: Eunicida: Eunicidae)

Eunice uschakovi n. sp.

collected from the intertidal zone. The species belongs to the group of Eunice that has yellow tridentate subacicular hooks and branchiae scattered over an extensive region of the body. It resembles E. miurai and E. havaica in having both bidentate and tridentate falcigers

but can be readily distinguished by branchial features. Comparisons between E. uschakovi and the two related species are presented.
