Description Description by Day (1973: 84-86), based on specimens from Marseille: "Length up to 150 mm for 250 segments. Prostomium pointed. Thorax flattened with 18-21 setigers. Transition to abdomen abrupt. Branchiae narrow and lanceolate, present from setiger 15 or 16. Postsetal lobe of notopodium short and tapered in thorax, becoming weakly scalpel-shaped and as long as branchiae in anterior abdomen. No interramal cirri. Thoracic neuropodia as vertical halfmoonshaped ridges, with a median notch but without a foot-papilla in setigers 1-7, becoming oval with a more dorsal notch and a single footpapilla on last three to six thoracic setigers. Stomach-papillae entirely absent. Abdominal neuropodia with a broad basal flange and a bilobed dorsal projection. Inner (dorsal) lobe longer and stouter than outer lobe. No ventral cirri. Thoracic notosetae as numerous crenulate capillaries; abdominal notosetae similar but with a few short forked setae in addition. Thoracic neurosetae as four or five rows of completely smooth, slightly bent hooks with guards plus small tufts of crenulate capillaries at the median notch of the neuropodium and at the upper margin. Abdominal neurosetae include three or four acicula with projecting ends, two or three normally tapered crenulate capillaries and five or six flail-setae with stout, lightly serrated shafts and tapered tips sometimes bent at an angle."
