"In connection with an extended review of the polynoid genera, based on a study of the type-species, it was found that Scalisetosus Mclntosh (1885) has been used for a heterogenous group of species. The genus has served to include species with setae as transparent as crystal and the neurosetae characterized by the presence of a basal semilunar cusp or pocket, although this particular feature was not shown on the figure of the neurosetae of the type-species, S. ceramensis, by Mclntosh (1885, pl.10A, fig. 14). Any species equipped with this peculiar type of neurosetae has been placed in Scalisetosus, regardless of other characters. Saint-Joseph (1899) proposed the new genus Adyte for three species (Polynoe pellucida Ehlers, Hermadion assimile Mclntosh, and H. echini Giard) having the peculiar type of neurosetae, separating them from S. ceramensis, which lacks the basal semilunar cusps. Mclntosh (1900) was responsible for changing the diagnosis of Scalisetosus to include the species referred to Adyte by Saint-Joseph, Subsequently, Adyte was abandoned and was synonymized with Scalisetosus by Fauvel (1914, p. 47)."
