Resumen
Knowledge about the taxonomy and distribution of the monogeneric polychaete family
Longosomatidae Hartman, 1944 is limited in all parts of the world. A new species of the genus
Heterospio Ehlers, 1874 (Annelida, Longosomatidae) is described from the Indian Ocean. Heterospio
indica sp. nov. is mainly characterised by the conspicuous fl attening of the distal half of capillary chaetae
located in anterior elongated segments. Several body characters of high taxonomic relevance in the
genus are examined under the SEM and discussed. The 18S SSU rDNA and COI genes were sequenced
and represent the fi rst sequencing of a species of Heterospio, and the sequences have been deposited in
GenBank
