Coryne fucicola (de Filippi, 1866) has been considered a somewhat problematic species of unknown origin and whose last records date back more than a century. However, a living colony was recently rediscovered at Roscoff and the species is redescribed in this report. It is evidently a valid species and clearly distinct from other similar species like Coryne pusilla and C. muscoides. This was also confirmed using 16S sequence data. The relationship to the similarly problematic C. vermicularis Hincks, 1866 is discussed and the status of the latter re-evaluated by an examination of the type material.Coryne vermicularis appears distinct from C. fucicola, but its relationship to C. pusilla remains unclear. Pending a detailed comparison of living material, it is advised not to synonymize C. vermicularis and C. pusilla.Original Abstract: Coryne fucicola (de Filippi, 1866) a ete consideree comme une espece problematique d'origine inconnue et elle n'a plus ete reperee depuis plus de cent ans. Neanmoins, elle a ete redecouverte a Roscoff et l'espece est re-decrite dans cette publication. Il s'agit clairement d'une espece valide et nettement distincte des especes proches comme Coryne pusilla et C. muscoides. Ce fait est confirme par une analyse des sequences 16S. La relation avec l'espece egalement problematique Coryne vermicularis Hincks, 1866 est discutee et son statut evalue par un examen du materiel type. Coryne vermicularis semble etre distincte de C. fucicola mais la relation avec C. pusilla reste confuse. Avant qu'un examen detaille du materiel vivant soit possible, il est preferable de ne pas considerer C. vermicularis et C. pusilla comme synonymes.
