World Polychaeta Database (WPolyDb). Uebelacker uses 1924 as the date for Augener's paper, which has caused some confusion as others use 1922, and she does not explain her choice. Here 1922 is used for this part of the volume (probably completed in 1925)- see Augener 1922

The types of 6 little-known syllid species described by Augener in 1924 from the Dry Tortugas, Florida, and from St. Thomas and St. Croix in the West Indies, were reexamined. Haplosyllides floridana is a sexual form herein assigned to Haplosyllis floridana n. comb.; Haplosyllis aberrans (Fauvel) is synonymized with it. Eusyllis antillensis and Syllis (Typosyllis ) tigrinoides are synonyms; the latter name is retained. Syllis (Typosyllis ) tortugaensis is referred to S. (T.) armillaris (Mueller). Syllis (Typosyllis ) fuscosuturata has previously been synonymized with Branchiosyllis exilis (Gravier); that synonymy is supported here. Syllis (Typosyllis ) corallicoloides remains a valid species.
