A new Bathydrilus (Oligochaeta: Tubificidae) from the eastern Gulf of Mexico
Bathydrilus notabilis is described from 4-58.5 m depths off Crystal River and Dry Tortugas in the eastern Gulf of Mexico. The species is characterized by large, finely pectinate, penial setae (3-4 per bundle) in segment XI and entally curved, single-pointed, spermathecal setae (1 or 2 on each side) in X which distinguish it from all congeners.
