Taxonomical review of <i>Perinereis aibuhitensis</i> Grube, 1878 (Nereidae: Polychaeta) in Korea
A nereid worm, Perinereis aibuhitensis has been frequently mis-identified in Korea as P. vancaurica tetradentata or Neanthes virens due to the wide variation in the number and arrangement of paragnaths on its proboscis. In this paper we re-examined ca. 50 worms collected in three intertidal mud flats of the western coast of Korea, and identified them to be P. aibuhitensis, a new record in Korea. We also described the heteronereid of this species and its biogeographical range.
