Dodecaceria fistulicola Ehlers, 1901<br />

Dodecaceria fistulicola Ehlers, 1901 a: 266. Type locality/origin: “Cavancha, Iquinque” (Chile, SE Pacific).<br />

° Dodecaceria fistulicola. — KNOX 1971: 1438.<br />

Dodecaceria? fistulicola. — BEN-ELIAHU & SAFRIEL 1982: 389.<br />

Regional distribution: Red Sea.<br />

Dodecaceria joubini Gravier, 1905<br />

Dodecaceria joubini Gravier, 1905 c: 319. Type locality/origin: “Grand Recif, Îles Musha” (Djibouti, Gulf <strong>of</strong> Aden).<br />

Dodecaceria joubini. — GRAVIER 1906 d: 156.<br />

° Dodecaceria joubini. — KNOX 1971: 1438.<br />

Regional distribution: Gulf <strong>of</strong> Aden.<br />

Remarks: FAUVEL (1953) synonymised this <strong>species</strong> with Dodecaceria fistulicola Ehlers, 1901.<br />

In his opinion <strong>the</strong> <strong>species</strong> are very similar and “may be only varieties”. In contrast to Fauvel,<br />

KNOX (1971) regarded Dodecaceria joubini as a distinct <strong>species</strong>. Since he gave <strong>the</strong> diagnostic<br />

characters <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> 14 <strong>species</strong> belonging to this genus, we follow KNOX and list <strong>the</strong> <strong>species</strong> here as<br />

Dodecaceria joubini.<br />

Dodecaceria laddi Hartman, 1954<br />

Dodecaceria laddi Hartman, 1954: 638. Type locality/origin: Eniwetok Atoll (Nor<strong>the</strong>rn Marshall Islands, W Pacific).<br />

Dodecaceria sp.<br />

* Zeppelina nova Ben-Eliahu, 1976 b: 132. Type locality/origin: “Wadi Kabila” (near Dahab, Egypt, Gulf <strong>of</strong> Aqaba, Red Sea).<br />

Zeppelina nova. — BEN-ELIAHU & SAFRIEL 1982: 389.<br />

° Dodecaceria sp. — GEORGE & PETERSEN 1991: 96.<br />

Regional distribution: Red Sea.<br />

Remarks: GEORGE & PETERSEN (1991) reviewed <strong>the</strong> <strong>species</strong> <strong>of</strong> Zeppelina, a genus erected in<br />

<strong>the</strong> family Ctenodrilidae but actually based on asexual regenerates <strong>of</strong> Dodecaceria. They referred<br />

Zeppelina nova to an indeterminable <strong>species</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> cirratulid genus Dodecaceria. Petersen (pers.<br />

comm.) now suspects that <strong>the</strong> <strong>species</strong> may be D. sextentaculata (Delle Chiaje, 1822).<br />

Protocirrineris chrysoderma (Claparède, 1869)<br />

Cirratulus chrysoderma Claparède, 1869: 2. Type locality/origin: “Golfe de Naples” (Gulf <strong>of</strong> Naples, Italy, Mediterranean<br />

Regional distribution: Red Sea.
