Abstract

Several genera in the Tubulifera are mono typic, and in some cases species were described based on a sole original holotype (Mound, 1976). This scenario complicates the study of morpholog ical variation in species, and in several cases, in traspecific variation may be greater than varia tion between species (Retana-Salazar & Mound 1994). Reports of taxa from new localities and de scriptions of specific character variation are fun damental in the study of these groups. Modest publications of this sort advance the construction of a more complete landscape of morphological variation on an interspecific and intraspecific level.
