But Paxton, H. (1974) Contribution to the study of the Australian Nephtyidae (Polychaeta). Records of the Australian Museum , 29, No 7, 197-208.
synonimyzed N.mirocirris Fauchald 1965 with N.gravieri p 203: " the two species are identical, with N.mirocirris the junior sinonim. The account of Augener can be emended to include: the proximal surfase of the proboscis is covered with minute prickles and it lacks a subterminal median papilla. The interramal cirri are first present fron C-3"
