Glenys Gibson describes various forms of poecilogonous development in 
the spionid Boccardia proboscidea in this paper:  

Gibson, G.D. 1997. Variable development in the spionid Boccardia 
proboscidea is linked to nurse egg production and larval trophic mode. 
Invertebrate Biology 116(3):213-226.   

In that paper she cites several other instances of polychaete poecilogony, 
mainly in spionids, including work on Streblospio benedicti by Lisa Levin.
