From editor or global species database
Taxonomy Imajima (1972) did not examine Wu's material but included Wu's Taiwan Perinereis linea record in P. vancaurica tetradentata, a new subspecies of another Perinereis which Imajima based on old museum material posssibly collected by Izuka. Arias et al (2013) describe Perinereis linea from Mediterranean and Korean specimens. The type was not examined so this is not a redescription. [details]
