Abstract
Two species are described from shallow waters in La Jolla in southern California, the chrysopetalid Dysponetus populonectens, new species, and the phyllodocid Pterocirrus burtoni, new species. The syllid Brachysyllis lagunae (Hartman, 1961), new combination (previously in Dioplosyllis), and the phyllodocids Eulalia aviculiseta Hartman, 1936, Eulalia gracilior (Chamberlin, 1919), new combination (previously in Steggoa), Pterocirrus montereyensis (Hartman, 1936), and Eumida longicornuta (Moore, 1906) are redescribed from types and newly collected specimens. Sige californiensis Chamberlin, 1919 is treated as a nomen dubium. COI sequences are provided for all included species.
