From editor or global species database
Diagnosis Lateral antennae simple, without distinct ceratophores; palps biarticulate, with style abruptly narrowingto thin distal half. Eight pairs of tentacular cirri; longest dorsal cirri reaching chaetiger 12, longest ventral cirri reaching chaetiger 4. Dorsal foliose lobes of parapodia without projections, with bluntly pointed tips. [details] Etymology Parahesione dudahamra is named from the Arabic words for red worm ( ءارمح ةدود = dudat hamra’ or, simplified, duda hamra), describing the bright red colour of the new worm species. Unchanging noun in apposition. [details] Habitat Found in a sand flat burrow probably of a burrowing decapod, but host not yet determined. At the locality there were five species of snapping shrimps (Alpheus spp.) and at least eight species of ghost and mud-shrimps in the families Callichiridae (3 species), Callianassidae (2 species), Eucalliacidae (1 species) and Laomediidae (2 species). [details] Type locality Burrow near mangrove roots, sandflat adjacent to mangroves, near King Abdullah Monument, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, Thuwal, Makkah Governate, Saudi Arabia, 22.3406 N 39.0875 E, suction pump, depth 0.3–0.5 m [details] Type material Described from a single specimen, holotype FLMNH UF 12510.
