From editor or global species database
Editor's comment Chloeia australis Kudenov, 1993 from Campbell Plateau seems very likely to be C. inermis in part as Kudenov does not mention it for comparison. Subsequently Salazar-Vallejo (2023: 75) has re-examined types and placed C. australis as one of two junior synonyms to Chloeia inermis [details]
Etymology According to Salazar-Vallejo (2023) "The specific epithet selected by Quatrefages (1866: 389, Latin diagnosis; 388) refers to the presence of smooth chaetae, instead of being denticulate (Latin inermis, e: unarmed, without spines), as indicated by Benham (1916: 390). However, there are a few harpoon notochaetae in the damaged holotype of C. inermis, but most notochaetae are acicular" [details]
Type locality New Zealand coast, location unknown. Quatrefages does not give a further location or indicate the collector. Salazar-Vallejo (2023) states the collectors, presumably derived from the museum label or deduced as: "MNHN IA-TYPE 95), J.R.C. Quoy & J.P. Gaimard, coll." Salazar-Vallejo adds a probable collection date of Oct-Dec. 1826, apparently derived from the voyage account of Dumont d'Urville rather than from the museum label. The location is thus unknown.
