Dear Neus,

See here
http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/library/816.pdf
https://openlibrary.org/books/OL14113320M/Benthic_errantiate_polychaetes_of_British_Columbia_and_Washington

and here
http://www.annelida.net/nepacifi.html

But I am afraid that all this will not help you a bit because the books 
include the species "known from landward of the 200-m isobath". Before 
useful taxonomic keys can be produced, somebody has to study the fauna 
of Barkley Canyon and this seems to be your project, right? I am happy 
to help you with serpulid polychaetes should you encounter any.

Good luck!
Cheers,
Lena
