Status Named in a footnote on Sabella in which Cuvier includes both sabellids and serpulids (1829/1830: 192). He refers to "Sabelle bispiralis (Amphitrite volutacornis, Trans. Linn., VII", which is a reference to Montagu (1804). Also quoted by Morch (1863: 354) in a discussion on the status of the genus Protula Risso. Hartman (1959: 558) referred this name to Protula sp. in Serpulidae. However, Amphitrite volutacornis Montagu, 1804 belongs in the sabellid genus Bispira. Unless Cuvier's name was available prior to Montagu's it is difficult to see a relevance for "Sabelle bispiralis" as an available binomial under ICZN code. It appears to be a gratuitous new name. [details]
