  • Terebelliphilus simplex n. gen., n. sp. and Myxomolgus invulgus n. sp. are described from the tubicolous polychaetes found in the intertidal shores in the Yellow Sea. The new genus Terebelliphilus belongs to the family Sabelliphilidae but is characteristic in bearing the reduced segmentations In legs 1-4, an unusual sexual dimorphism in antennule, and the ventral location of genital areas. Myxomolgus invulgus is readily distinguishable from its congeners by the morphological features of rostrum, antennule, mandible, maxilla, leg 4 and female leg 5.
