Magelona berkeleyi n.sp. is described from Puget Sound, Washington. It is most similar to M. filiformis from Great Britain and M. lenticulata from South Vietnam. Detailed studies of M. longicornis, utilizing refined dissection techniques, reveal the presence of a number of diagnostic structures heretofore overlooked. Comments concerning the differentiation of nine valid recently described species (since 1963), relative to previously known species, are made.
