From editor or global species database
Etymology Ophryotrocha hartmanni is assumed to be named after Professsor M. Hartmann, who is mentioned in the article. [details]
Taxonomy There are no type specimens, but the type locality is Plymouth, Devon, UK. Ravara et al (2021: 59) give this background about Ophryotrocha hartmanni: The original description of O. hartmanni given by Huth (1933) is based mostly on cytological features. The only morphological details included reference to the specimens’ average length (4–5 mm), to the body shape as being torpedo-like and to the position of the sperms and oocytes (sperms in the first three chaetigers and oocytes from the fourth chaetiger onwards). The specimens examined by Huth were collected at Plymouth and kept in laboratory conditions, but no information is given on type material or its deposition. Parenti (1961) provided a re-description of the same species based on material from Roscoff also kept in laboratory conditions. There is no mention to a re-examination of type material or other material from the type locality, but Parenti (1961) confirmed some of the cytological observations made by Huth (1933) and provided a complete morphological description, highlighting the differences between this and other species. Again, there is no indication regarding the deposition of the examined material. Åkesson (1973) studied the reproduction and larval morphology of O. hartmanni using specimens from Plymouth and Roscoff aquaria and from the harbours of Malaga (S Spain) and concluded that interbreeding of the three strains produced fertile progeny in all combinations, and also in subsequent generations. This denotes the widespread distribution of this species." [details]
