Subadyte
Pettibone, 1969
Fauvel (1923)
synonymized
Hermadion fragile
Claparède, 1868
with
Hermadion pellucidum
(
Ehlers, 1864
)
and referred the species to
Scalisetosus pellucidus
,
due to the presence of semi-lunar pockets in the neurochaetae. We follow
Pettibone (1969)
who established the genus
Subadyte
with the
type
species
Subadyte pellucida
, characterized by a rather short body with up to 40 segments, the lack of cephalic peaks, neuropodia without supra-acicular process, neuropodial acicular lobe elongate, and neurochaetae with semi-lunar pockets and distinctly bidentate tip.
