Extract

A re-investigation of fresh material makes it necessary to create the new genus Thalassodrilus for T. prostatus (Knollner). Careful adherence to generic and specific criteria as detailed leads to the recognition of nineteen brackish-water and marine Tubificidae, and some dubious entities are also listed.
