AB  - The Syllinae and Eusyllinae were studied in two similar habitats in the Gulf of Elat and on the Mediterranean coast of Israel. These were porous reefs of vermetid (<i>Dendropoma</i> spp.) tubes encrusted on seaward margins of intertidal platforms. In the Mediterranean habitat there were 11 species: nine Syllinae and two Eusyllinae. Four species are new records for the Israeli Mediterranean coast. Twenty-five species were identified from the Gulf of Elat habitat: 20 Syllinae, five Eusyllinae. Twenty-three were new records; three additional species (two Syllinae, one Eusyllinae) not fully identified, are also presumed to be new records. One new subspecies, <i>Syllis truncata mediterranea</i>, is described from the Mediterranean habitat; two new species, <i>Syllis lunaroides</i> and <i>S. safrieli</i> and five new subspecies, <i>Syllis lunaris minima</i>, <i>S. alternata kabilica</i>, <i>S. truncata cryptica</i>, <i>Langerhansia rosea curticirris</i>, and <i>Pionosyllis lamelligera pariseta</i> are described from the Gulf of Elat habitat.
