After the Marion Dufresnes MD/03 Expedition in 1974, a new expedition Marion Dufresnes MD/08 was undertaken to study benthic invertebrates from the South West Indian Ocean. Orbiniella marionensis, a new species of Orbiniidae, Polychaeta from Marion Island, Indian Ocean is described. This species was collected during the Marion Dufresnes BENTHOS Expedition around subantarctic Islands. Orbiniella marionensis is compared with other species of the genus Orbiniella Day, 1954 and differs in having only one preanal segment and by the absence of modified setae in the posterior region.
