From editor or global species database
Taxonomy Light (1978:157) continued placement of Neopygospio laminifera under Pseudopolydora kempi. It appears that no one since has regarded 'laminifera' as a valid species in its own right within Pseudopolydora, thus, although WoRMS formerly did have a database record as that combination, no usage in print has been found that supports that.
