Spiochaetopterus costarum was long believed to be a cosmopolitan species but in fact the name has been applied to a number of pseudo-cryptic species (e.g. Bhaud 1998 , Bhaud et al. 2003 ). Mediterranean specimens are currently considered to belong to Spiochaetopterus costarum sensu stricto, as the type locality of the species is in the Gulf of Naples.
