Pettibone, Marian H. (1986). Review of the Iphioninae (Polychaeta: Polynoidae) and revision of Iphione cimex Quatrefages, Gattyana deludens Fauvel and Harmothoe iphionelloides Johnson (Harmothoinae). Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology. 428: 1-43.
Review of the Iphioninae (Polychaeta: Polynoidae) and revision of <i>Iphione cimex</i> Quatrefages, <i>Gattyana deludens</i> Fauvel and <i>Harmothoe iphionelloides</i> Johnson (Harmothoinae).
The subfamily Iphioninae, including the genera Iphione, Iphionella, and Iphionides, is reviewed and revised, based on examination of types, other published records, and new material. Two new species of Iphione from Hawaiian waters are described. Iphionella McIntosh is revised, I. cimex of McIntosh is given a new name, and a new species from the hydrothermal vents in the East Pacific Rise is added. Iphione cimex Quatrefages is referred to the new genus Gaudichaudius in Harmothoinae, with Gattyana deludens Fauvel as a synonym. Harmothoe iphionelloides Johnson is referred to the same genus.
