Dear colleagues,
In March 1998 Joao Gil started a short discussion in this list on the identity
of Magelona mirabilis (Johnston, 1865). Frank Licher, Andy Mackie and I
have combined our data and observations and finally succeeded to
published a paper on the European species of the genus Magelona.
Included is a redescription of M. mirabilis and the description of a new
species M. johnstoni - both have previously been confused often referring
to them collectively under the name M. papillicornis.
Fiege, D., Licher, F., Mackie, A.S.Y.: A partial review of the
European Magelonidae (Annelida: Polychaeta): Magelona mirabilis
redefined and M. johnstoni n. sp. distinguished. J. Mar. Biol. Ass.
U. K. 80(2): 215-234.
We have a number of reprints left, but unfortunately the
quality of the SEM-plates is very poor due to a mystery that
happened in the printing process. A copy of the article can also be
downloaded or printed from a pdf-file on the homepage of my section
(http://senckenberg.uni-frankfurt.de/fis/mev2.htm). Printed with a
600dpi laser printer, the quality of the plates is at least a little
better than in the journal and reprints.
Metamerically,
Dieter Fiege
