Editor's comment Cymospira incompleta, also catalogued as Spirobranchus incompleta, is indeterminable, but might fall in this complex of species [details]

Editor's comment The group of taxa brought together by ten Hove (1970) under the subspecific name Spirobranchus giganteus corniculatus in the meantime is thought to be a complex of species in itself: Spirobranchus corniculatus-complex, see Fiege & ten Hove (1999 fig.4) for a graphic overview. Sp. corniculatus sensu stricto is one representative of this complex. There is a lot of confusion in the existing identifications of circumtropical "Sp. giganteus", but the use of the latter binomen should be restricted to the specimens from the Caribbean. [details]

Synonymy S. giganteus tricornis non Mörch, sensu Fauvel (1930, 1947) most probably should be attributed to S. corniculatus s.str. [details]
