    Two new species of Paraonidae, Aricidea (Aricidea) pacharaphoni sp. nov., and A. (A.) sathingpra sp. nov., are described from the Southwestern Pacific. Aricidea (A.) pacharaphoni sp. nov., collected in the Andaman Coast and the Gulf of Thailand, is clearly distinguished from other species of Aricidea (Aricidea) by having an elongate, faintly annulated median antenna extending to chaetigers 3–7; chaetiger 3 with distinctive globose notopodial postchaetal lobes with long digitiform terminal tips; two types of branchiae, strap-like and foliaceous; and two types of modified neurochaetae, pseudocompound and stout acicular. Aricidea (A.) sathingpra sp. nov., was collected in the Gulf of Thailand and belongs to the articulated antenna group, being separated from all other species of this subgenus by having a triarticulated antenna; pair of distinctive round furrow protuberances on the prostomium; and 6–7 pairs of wide foliaceous branchiae. We suggested that the modification and shape of the notopodial postchaetal lobes in chaetiger 3 are an important morphological character to differentiate the species of this subgenus. Molecular phylogenetic and genetic distance analyses, based on cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene sequences support the recognition of Aricidea (A.) pacharaphoni sp. nov., as a distinct species. A taxonomic key for all world species of Aricidea (Aricidea) is included.

    Two new species of Sigambra (Annelida, Pilargidae) from the Andaman coast and the Gulf of Thailand

    Two species of Pilargidae, Sigambra pakbaraensis sp. nov. and S. sirilukae sp. nov. are described from different coasts of Southern Thailand (Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand). Both species belong to the subgroup of Sigambra which lack ventral cirri at chaetiger 2 and have capillary notochaetae. Sigambra pakbaraensis sp. nov. is described from the Andaman coast and can be distinguished from other species in the genus by the occurrence of the first dorsal hook at chaetiger 8, the presence of capillaries in notopodia, and 14 pharyngeal papillae. Sigambra sirilukae sp. nov. is described from the Gulf of Thailand and it is clearly distinguished from all other species in the genus by having 12 pharynx papillae, an elongate median antenna with a large ceratophore, dorsal hooks from middle chaetigers, and up to five capillary notochaetae from anterior most chaetigers (4–5). Molecular phylogenetic analyses, based on cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) and mitochondrial genes 16S, indicate S. pakbaraensis sp. nov. clusters within Sigambra Müller, 1858. Pores on the dorsal and ventral cirri of both species are herein described for the first time for the genus. An updated key to species of Sigambra from the Indo-Pacific region is also provided.
