polychaete families
The
following polychaete family names are misspellings or have been synonymised with other families. Also included are a few higher taxa that have moved into or out of the Polychaeta. Complete synonymies for families should be sought in other sources (principally Fauchald, 1977; Hartmann, 1959, 1965; and major family revisions). The following list is intended to include the most commonly encountered synonyms, and those most recently proposed. The references cited below are in many cases those which best explain the history of the taxonomy or nomenclature; they are not necessarily the original authority for establishing the synonymy.
