discussion
Remarks: Hartman (1965) described N. teres with hooded hooks on neuropodia of chaetigers 10 and 11, mentioning that this character makes it different from other species. We consider that this character is not important to separate one species from another, since during its development it is modified. However, the species is considered valid.
