From editor or global species database
Editor's comment Dubious record without usage evidence. This combination, original data entry by Fauchald, with date 1943 (corrected to 1929) lacks evidence of usage in the literature, and currently a basis for the record has not been found. The use of Nereis (Ceratonereis) would have been from ~1880 to ~1930, before Ceratonereis became treated as a full genus, and long before 1943, and Ceratonereis singularis was not described until 1929. There is also confusion with Nereis singularis Treadwell, 1943 which is a Platynereis. [details]
