New combination Recombined from Myriochele by Capa et al (2012) who write: "A species described from Indonesia, Myriochele eurystoma Caullery, 1944, that clearly belongs to the genus Galathowenia because of the shape of the prostomium, presence of ventral slit, and a groove between the head and the first segment and also between the first and the second one (Caullery, 1944: fig. 42A–D; Gibbs, 1971: fig. 15A), seems to share some features with G. arafurensis sp. nov. Nevertheless, the animals described were incomplete, lacking the pygidium, and the description is too poor for a complete comparison with the Australian material. This material was unavailable for study but a future comparison between the two species would be of interest. " [details]
