Identification According to Blake (2018: 21) the numerous identifications of Aphelochaeta cincinnata from Antarctic waters are likely to be misidentifications of other species, such as A. palmeri Blake, 2018. Blake concluded that "A. cincinnata does not occur in the high Antarctic despite numerous reports to the contrary (e.g., Bellan 1972; Hartman 1978; Hartmann-Schröder & Rosenfeldt 1989, 1990; Cantone & Sanfilippo 1992; Knox & Cameron 1998; Siciński 2000, 2004; Hilbig 2001; Hilbig et al. 2006; and many others).
