Description
Eunice Cuvier, 1817
Type species Eunice aphroditois (Pallas, 1788)
Remarks. Fauchald (1977) recorded 170 species belonging to the genus. This species checklist has been expanded since with new combinations and new species (Miura 1977, 1986, 1987; Amoureux 1977; Orensanz 1990; Hanley 1986; Fauchald 1992; León-González 1988; Lechapt 1992; Carrera-Parra & Salazar-Vallejo 1998, 2011; Hartmann-Schröder & Zibrowius 1998; Lu & Fauchald 1998, 2000; Zanol et al. 2000; Nogueira et al. 2001; León- González et al. 2004; Ardila et al. 2005; Imajima 2006; Wu et al. 2013a, b). At present, the total number of known species for the genus exceeds 250 (Fauchald & Bellan 2013). The present study adds four more species to the list.
