to Syllis To S. pharobroomensis (Hartmann-Schröder, 1979). Over a few years Hartmann-Schröder, 1979 created several what are evidently similar Typosyllis species. Licher (2000) synonymized some and then San Martin (2024) synonymized them differently. As these are morphological subjective synonymies they may be unreliable, pending molecular data.
