Diagnosis "... distinguished from all other members of the genus by having distally bifid heterogomph pseudospinigers. It may be distinguished from other groundwater Namanereis species by the combination of jaws with a single terminal tooth and series of subterminal teeth (the typical nereidid condition) and relatively few (seven to 11) serrations on the supraneuroacicular falcigers." [details]
