Fellow Annelidians,
First, I cannot seem to find the first paper describing the genus
(or subgenus) _Acmira_. The only paper that I was able to find was by
Hartmann-Schroeder, G; Hartmann, G (1991). Also, does anybody know if
there are papers that mention _Acmira_ around the Arabian Sea area. I
found this critter at 3400 m.
Second, I wanted to find out more on Oenonidae. According to the
Worldwide Polychaete Family List compiled by Geoff Read, Oenonidae is not
only a recognized family, but it has also absorbed arabellids and some
former lysaretids. However, a counterpart of mine was of the opinion that
Oenonidae is now part of Lysaretidae. Could anybody clarify that for me?
Thanks,
Christopher
