Phyllodocids (Annelida Polychaeta) of Belize, with the description of three new species
Proceedings of the Biological Society of Washington
Phyllodocidae (polychaetes) from Belize are reported. Eight species are treated in detail. Of these, 3 are newly described Eumida muriatica, Sige belizensis, and Nereiphylla mimica. Pterocirrus foliosus (Treadwell, 1924) is redescribed and the identities of Hesionura elongata (Southern, 1914), Mystides borealis Théel, 1879, and Phyllodoce erythrophylla (Schmarda, 1861) are discussed. Eight additional species are recognized, but not treated in detail due to the lack of sufficient material. Together with the previously recorded Phyllodoce panamensis Treadwell, 1917, 17 species are now known from Belize.
