From editor or global species database
Etymology Not stated, but H. ralumianus is evidently named after its place of collection. The original gender suffix was then incorrect for Hydroides, instead evidently agreeing with the subgenus Eupomatus. [details]
Type locality Ralum, Kokopo, Blanche Bay, New Britain (Neu-Pommern), Bismarck Archipelago of Papua New Guinea. The plantation “Ralum” was briefly the base for Friedrich Dahl, who collected the worms in 1896-97 (fide Augener, 1927). Estimated geolocaton -4.3371° 152.2674° [details]
