Before his death on April 5, 1938 (Klatt, 1939), the late Dr. Hermann Augener was working on some additional errant polychaetes from the Siboga Expedition. The material had been identified and a preliminary manuscript had been prepared. When Dr. Augener became seriously ill in the fall of 1937, the collection was returned to the Zoological Museum in Amsterdam, along with the original hand-written German manuscript. No figures had been prepared. Among the identified polychaetes were some ten species which had been indicated as new, and one new genus. These specimens recently were sent to me by Dr. S. van der Spoel, along with an English translation of the original manuscript. Based on a restudy of this material, four of Augener's ten species are considered now to be new, and two genera; these are indicated in the text with Augener and Pettibone as the authors. The other six have been referred to previously described species, some of which were published within the thirty years since Augener prepared his manuscript.
