Abstract
The definition of Inanidrilus Erséus, 1979 (subfamily Phallodrilinae) is emended to include Inanidrilus mexicanus sp. nov. from the eastern part of the Gulf of Mexico, and Inanidrilus falcifer sp. nov. from coral reefs at Barbados, West Indies. The two new species differ from I. bulbosus Érséus, 1979 by their possession of paired spermathecae and from each other in the morphology of their spermathecae, atria, and penial setae.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
