1. La presente Note contient une liste de 26 especes de Polychetes, identifiees apres l'etude de 250 echantHlons ; 10 de ces especes avaient deja ete citees par d'autres auteurs, et leur existence est ainsi confirmee, tandis que 16 autres - et 2 genres non cites - sont nouvelles pour la faune roumaine (Ies especes marquees par x sur la liste). Onze especes n'ont pas encore ete retrouvees; ce sont probablement des especes littorales, et Ies etudes • ont surtout porte sur la faune abyssale.
2. La famille des Nereidae est decrite de maniere -plus detaillee, 5 especes etant amplement illustrees (voir planches I-III); on donne egalement une clef dichotomique.
3. A la phase actuelle des recherches, on peut affirmer que la faune des Polychetes est representee par 37 especes, dont certaines ont une aire assez vaste de repartition. On doit ajouter 3 genres, dont l'espece n'a pu etre precisee, faute de materiel et de bibliographie.
4. Quelques considerations sur l'importance economique du groupe completent la Note
[1. This Note contains a list of 26 species of Polychaeta, identified after the study of 250 samples; 10 of these species had already been cited by other authors, and their existence is thus confirmed, while 16 others - and 2 uncited genera - are new for the Romanian fauna (the species marked by x on the list). Eleven species have not yet been found; they are probably littoral species, and the studies have mainly focused on the abyssal fauna.
2. The family Nereidae is described in more detail, 5 species being amply illustrated (see Plates I-III); a dichotomous key is also given.
3. At the present stage of research, it can be stated that the fauna of Polychaeta is represented by 37 species, some of which have a fairly large distribution area. We must add 3 genera, whose species could not be specified, due to lack of material and bibliography.
4. Some considerations on the economic importance of the group complete the Note.]
