diagnosis

Diagnosis. Tube white opaque, quadrangular in cross-section; with 4 denticulate keels, distal parts circular in cross-section, without ring-like peristomes. Operculum an inverse conical ampulla, with chitinous endplate; borne on 2 nd normal pinnulated radiole. Pseudoperculum absent. Radioles arranged pectinately, inter-radiolar membrane absent. Radiolar eyes not observed. Stylodes absent. Mouth palps not observed. Seven thoracic chaetigerous chaetigers, including six uncinigerous. Collar trilobed, tonguelets between ventral and lateral collar parts absent. Thoracic membranes short, ending at 2 nd – 3 rd thoracic chaetiger. Collar chaetae limbate, of two sizes. Apomatus chaetae present. Thoracic uncini rasp-shaped with up to 15 teeth in profile and 4 – 5 teeth in frontal view above blunt peg. Triangular depression absent. Abdominal chaetae flat narrow geniculate, blade with a more or less crenulated edge (rounded teeth). Abdominal uncini rasp-shaped, anterior peg blunt. Achaetous anterior abdominal zone absent. Long posterior capillary chaetae present. Posterior glandular pad absent.

etymology

Etymology. The genus is named after Dr Helmut Zibrowius who made important contributions to serpulid taxonomy and provided most of material for this study; - vermilia stresses the similarity with other genera (Table 3), with this stem.
