Abstract | Scale-worms are polychaetes of the family Polynoidae that are commonly distribute in marine environments. Thisstudy aims identify and introduce two scale-worms as Capitulatinoe cf. cupisetis and Eunoe cf. oerstedi from the western coast ofthe Gulf of Thailand. Using scanning electron microscopy of adult worms, the antennae, palps, prostomium, cirri, setigers,parapodia, saetae and elytra are described. In addition, the phylogenetic relationships of our specimens with other polychaetespecies were analyzed based on partial sequences of 28S, 18S and 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) genes. The rDNA sequencesidentified C. cf. cupisetis and E. cf. oerstedi were respectively recovered within Arctonoinae and Polynoinae in a monophyleticPolynoidae. The congruence or incongruence of the morphological and molecular data is discussed in the text. These findingsincrease the knowledge of polynoid polychaete worms in Thailand, although two scale-worms remain to be identified of theprecise species. |
