Description (based on complete syntype of Hermadion magalhaensi for number of segments and prostomium and on elytra and parapodia free in vial).
Body with 48 segments, mid-dorsum and tail uncovered by elytra. At anterior end (Fig. 1 A) prostomium bilobed, without cephalic peaks; ceratophore of median antenna in anterior notch, styles of antennae missing; lateral antennae inserted ventrally to median antenna; anterior pair of eyes situated anterolaterally near anterior corners of prostomium, posterior pair dorsally near hind margin of prostomium; palps tapering.
First or tentacular segment with a pair of tentaculophores inserted laterally to prostomium, each with a notochaeta and a dorsal and a ventral tentacular cirrus, styles missing. Second or buccal segment with first pair of elytra, biramous parapodia and long ventral or buccal cirri abruptly tapering subdistally. Following segments with shorter ventral cirri.
Fifteen pairs of rounded to oval elytra, leaving mid-dorsum and short tail uncovered, on segments 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 26, 29 and 32; last 16 segments cirrigerous; elytral margin without papillae; elytral surface with conical, blunt microtubercles and a few scattered papillae (Fig. 1 B,C). Cirrigerous segments with distinct dorsal tubercles, dorsal cirri with cylindrical cirrophore and long papillate style, slightly exceeding the length of notochaetae, abruptly tapering subdistally.
Parapodia biramous; notopodia and neuropodia with elongate acicular lobe, neuropodia without supraacicular process; tips of noto- and neuroacicula penetrating epidermis (Fig. 1 D). Notochaetae stouter than neurochaetae, short and long notochaetae with numerous rows of short spines and blunt tip (Fig. 1 E); neurochaetae more numerous with distinct rows of spines only distally; tips slightly falcate, unidentate (Fig. 1 F).
Measurements. Syntypes of Hermadion magalhaensi: cs, L 52 mm, W 10 mm for 48 segments (Fig. 1 A); af, L 28 mm, W 5 mm for 35 segments; af, L 46 mm, W 9 mm for 45 segments (only few posterior segments missing, body wall opened ventrally); af, L 13 mm, W 5 mm for 23 segments (bad condition).
Remarks. The genus Hermadion was erected by Kinberg (1856) for H. magalhaensi and H. longicirratus. Regarding the differentiation of both species Kinberg (1856) stated, that H. magalhaensi has smooth prostomial appendages, cirri, elytra, and notochaetae, while these are papillate, respectively serrated (i.e. with rows of spines) in H. longicirratus.
Ehlers (1897) synonymized Hermadion kerguelensis McIntosh, 1885 with H. magalhaensi and questioned the validity of H. longicirratus. Bergström (1916) finally checked Kinberg's type material and found no significant differences between H. magalhaensi and H. longicirratus. According to him the differences observed by Kinberg were due to the rather bad condition of the respective type specimens. Furthermore, Bergström attributed Hermadion to Harmothoe since he considered the generic differences insufficient. Augener (1932) agreed with Bergström regarding the synonymy of Kinberg's species, but he considered Hermadion a valid genus. As we showed above Hermadion differs mainly from Harmothoe due to its lack of cephalic peaks and neuropodial supra-acicular process, but also due to its mid-dorsum which is uncovered by elytra in large specimens, and its exclusively unidentate neurochaetae.
Orensanz (1974) was the first to realize that Lagisca laevis Hartmann-Schröder, 1962 belongs to the genus Hermadion, but without checking its synonymy. Our comparison of the type material of L. laevis and H. magalhaensi clearly showed that this species is also a junior synonym of H. magalhaensi.
Distribution and habitat. South Atlantic/Pacific (Magellan Region), Southern Indian Ocean (Kerguelen Islands); in shallow waters, down to 110 m, on various substrates such as stones, mud, and algae.
