However, the genus was erected for nautiloid molluscs from the Silurian-Carboniferous, not for a serpulid. Mörch (1863: 400) mentioned Actinoceras Bigsbyi Chenu, 1859 as a synonym of the serpulid Pomatostegus actinoceras Mörch, 1863; in reality Chenu (1859: 64–65, fig. 230) depicted a fossil siphon of a nautiloid, probably correctly under the genus Actinoceras, which indeed shows a superficial resemblance to the operculum of the recent serpulid P. actinoceras. 106 · Zootaxa 2036 © 2009 Magnolia Press TEN HOVE & KUPRIYANOVA
** According to Ippolitov (2007: 260), the name Glomerula Nielsen, 1931 should be “unavailable according to ICZN 13.3)”. No further explanation is given by Ippolitov. If he is referring to Article 13 (iii), the full text of that is: “Article 13. Names published after 1930.- (a) Names in general.- In addition to satisfying the provisions of Article 11, a name published after 1930 must be either . . . (iii) proposed expressly as a replacement fro a pre-existing available name”. Nielsen (1931: 85) defines the genus Glomerula in a key, and (p. 88) attributes a single species (Serpulites gordialis von Schlotheim, 1820) to his genus. Nielsen, who did not give any explanation for his action at all, either replaced the generic name Serpulites, a name explicitly unavailable according to “Article 20. Genus-group names ending in –ites . . . given to fossils.”, or he simply placed the species gordialis in a new genus. Both ways we do not see conflict with the Code, certainly not with 13 (iii), and in our opinion the name Glomerula is available, though not being a serpulid. Key to serpulid genera (described before 2008) Although we have included the most obvious exceptions to the generic diagnoses with a double, even sometimes treble pathway (e.g., Hyalopomatus (in part)), it is impossible to provide for every exception. For instance, juveniles may show fewer thoracic segments than adults, while the adult number of segments has been used in this key. The genera Pomatoceros and Spirobranchus occasionally show specimens without collar chaetae, which then would key out with Pomatoleios. Specimens with two minute pseudopercula instead of one pseudoperculum and a full grown operculum have been reported for all genera of the Serpulaclade. A generic name found with this (any) key always should be checked carefully against its diagnosis. Spirorbins have been included as category only. 1 Body symmetrical ..................................................................................................................................................... 2 - Body asymmetrical ................................................................................................................................................. 49 2 (1) Operculum present.................................................................................................................................................... 3 - Operculum absent .................................................................................................................................................. 40 3 (2) Collar chaetae absent ............................................................................................................................................... 4 - Collar chaetae present ............................................................................................................................................. 8 4 (3) Opercular peduncle without wings ........................................................................................................................... 5 - Peduncle with wings ...............................................................................................................................
