Taxon Notes: | In 2013, this family was divided into 4 families - Terebellidae, Polycirridae, Thelepodidae and Telothelepodidae by Nogueira, Fitzhugh & Hutchings, 2013, but recent work by Stiller et al, 2020, has shown that these taxa are ranked as tribes within the Terebellidae. This code is provided for use when identification of a specimen to this level is sufficient, or when no further detail is available. | ||||||
