Description

NEOGYPTIS GEN. NOV.

Type species: Ophiodromus roseus Malm, 1874: 82.

Etymology: ‘neo’ is Latin for new, ‘Gyptis’ is the genus to which several of the Neogyptis members were previously allocated. Gender feminine.

Description: Terminal ring of proboscis papillae present, lip pads usually absent (present in Neogyptis hongkongensis sp. nov.), neurochaetae usually from segment 5 (from segment 4 in Neogyptis hinehina sp. nov.), notochaetae usually from segment 6 (from segment 5 in Neogyptis crypta sp. nov.), transverse dorsal ridges absent or present.

Remarks: Neogyptis includes Neogyptis carriebowcayi sp. nov., N. crypta Pleijel, 1993b, comb. nov., Neogyptis fauchaldi sp. nov., N. hinehina sp. nov., N. hongkongensis sp. nov., N. mediterranea Pleijel, 1993a, comb. nov., N. plurisetis Hilbig, 1992, comb. nov., N. rosea (Malm, 1874) comb. nov., Neogyptis vostokensis sp. nov., and Neogyptis sp. A. A summary of characters separating the species is provided in Table 2.

There are no currently known morphological apomorphies for Neogyptis at the exclusion of Amphiduros. However, the molecular data provide strong support for a sister group relationship between the two taxa.
