Type locality Open bay of Solovetsky (or Solovki) Island [= Bolshoy Solovetsky Island], Solovetsky Archipelago, White Sea, Arctic Ocean (gazetteer estimate 65.00°, 35.64°). The type locality is stated in the original description as "In der offënen Bucht der Insel Solowki" [= "In the open bay of Solovki Island"]. It refers very likely to the biggest island of the Solovetsky Islands archipelago, the Bolshoy Solovetsky Island (or simply Solovetsky or Solokvi, "Solowki" in German), where the Solovetsky Biological Station of the Imperial St. Petersburg Society of Naturalists was located when Ssolowiew visited it to do his work, in 1898 (the station would be closed in 1899, and moved northwards). The bay cited is probably the open bay located off the Biological Station. [details]

Etymology Not stated by the author. The species is clearly named after the Finnish zoologist Anders Johan Malmgren (b. Kajaani, 21 November 1834 - d. Helsinki, 14 April 1897), who studied thoroughly the polychaetes of the northern seas of Europe, including the terebellids.  [details]

Taxonomy Solowetia malmgreni Ssolowiew, 1899 was considered to be a junior synonym of Proclea graffii (Langerhans, 1884) by Southern (1914), but later it was restored as valid in the genus Proclea by Holthe (1986). Though, the acceptance of its validity does not seem to be unanimous, and while Jirkov (2001) keeps Solowetia malmgreni under that synonymy, Nogueira et al. (2010) consider the species to be valid. [details]
