are very similar morphologically. Both species have the first chaetiger uniramous; tessellated epithelium is present from the first to chaetiger 6; notopodio of posterior thoracic segments located dorsally; abdominal neuropodial lobes, expanded towards dorsum; and methyl green staining pattern is the same (abdominal chaetigers stained with moderate green dorsally and ventral region with a pair of longitudinal bands running to the end of body). As a consequence, it is necessary to make a detailed revision of both species to clarify their taxonomic status.
