The purpose of this application is the conservation of the generic name Myriochele Malmgren, 1867 and the specific name oculata Zaks, 1923 for a marine bristleworm. The generic name is threatened by two senior subjective synonyms, Clymenia 0rsted, 1844 and Psammocollus Grube, 1866, both unused for over 50 years. The specific name oculata Zaks, 1923 is preferred to tenuissima 0rsted, 1844 for which there is no extant type material.
