From editor or global species database
Type material Ditlevsen described the species from " …a great number of fragments are present, all in a rather bad condition. All appendages are lacking, even the parapodia are in several segments torn off or partly torn off. As far as it is possible to judge -- not a single entire specimen is found and all the fragments represent front parts." Fiege & Barnich (2009) state that "Since the type material is in poor condition, this description is based on a well preserved non-type specimen (SMF 16991)." [details]
