Generic revision of <i>Mastobranchus</i> and <i>Peresiella</i> (Polychaeta: Capitellidae) with descriptions of two new species from the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Ocean
Proceedings of the Biological Society of Washington
Two new species of capitellid polychaetes from the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Ocean are described: Mastobranchus variabilis and Peresiella spathulata. Emended diagnoses for these genera are proposed. Two species currently assigned to Mastobranchus, M. dollfusi Fauvel, 1936, and M. indicus Southern, 1921, are considered incertae sedis. Keys to the species of Mastobranchus Eisig, 1887, and Peresiella Harmelin, 1968, are presented.
