Type material "Dr. T. Numaguch kindly informed us [about] the current status of Kitamori’s specimens: unfortunately, many specimens that were probably deposited in the Tokai Regional Fisheries Research Station (now the Central Fisheries Research Station) were lost during the move of the station from Tokyo to Yokohama, and there are no polychaete specimens deposited in the station (T.
