Type locality re-designated by neotype as Izmar Bay, Turkey. Original type locality "ad litora maris Adriatici" (Shores of the Adriatic Sea). Although Sendall & Salazar-Vallejo had material from the Adriatic, they designated an Aegean Sea specimen as neotype because it was "the best specimen". [details]
Taxonomy Described placed in Thalassema, but T. scutatus belongs in Polychaeta: Sternaspidae: Sternaspis, not Echiura.

Authority An alternative authority proposed by Muir & Petersen is as "Renier in Ranzani", because of the apparent contribution from Renier's unpublished notes used by Ranzani. However Ranzani is the sole author of the text. It is quite evident from Ranzani's text that he is presenting his own description of the specimens.
