AB  - Thirty species of the family Syllidae (Annelida, Phyllodocida) from Lizard Island have been identified. Three subfamilies (Eusyllinae, Exogoninae and Syllinae) are represented, as well as the currently unassigned genera <i>Amblyosyllis</i> and <i>Westheidesyllis</i>. The genus <i>Trypanobia</i> (Imajima & Hartman 1964), formerly considered a subgenus of <i>Trypanosyllis</i>, is elevated to genus rank. Seventeen species are new reports for Queensland and two are new species. <i>Odontosyllis robustus</i> n. sp. is characterized by a robust body and distinct colour pattern in live specimens consisting of lateral reddish-brown pigmentation on several segments, and bidentate, short and distally broad falcigers. <i>Trypanobia cryptica</i> n. sp. is found in association with sponges and characterized by a distinctive bright red colouration in live specimens, and one kind of simple chaeta with a short basal spur.
