Taxonomy A long Latin diagnosis is given. Erected solely for Terebella flexuosa Grube. Fauchald (1972:319) erected Paraxionice, named for the similarity to Axionice (and to Pista), but with 16 thoracic chaetigers and a single pair of branchiae (compared to 17 chaetigers and 2-3 pairs in Axionice). Both Axionice and Paraxionice were included in Pista sensu lato by Jirkov (2001:520), but earlier Holthe (1986) had treated Axionice as valid, and subsequently Nogueira et al (2013) appear to find it is distinct in a morphological cladistic study.

Etymology Not stated, unknown. [details]Synonymy Jirkov & Leontovich (2017: 920) in a morphological analysis found a group including "the type species of Axionice (Terebella flexuosa); Betapista Banse, 1980 (Betapista dekkerae Banse, 1980); Eupistella Chamberlin, 1919 (Eupista darwini McIntosh, 1885); Lanice Malmgren, 1866 (Nereis conchilega Pallas, 1766); Loimia Malmgren, 1866 (Terebella medusa Savigny in de Lamarck, 1818); and Paraxionice Fauchald, 1972 (P. artifex Fauchald, 1972)." They proposed that these genera were synonyms of Axionice: "We consider this group to be a single genus and the other names as its junior synonyms. The oldest genera are Axionice, Lanice and Loimia; they were erected in one paper, so they have equal taxonomic status. We prefer to use Axionice because in the usual sense in which the genus is used is clearer and we will avoid confusion with previously used binomens". [details]
Taxonomy A long Latin diagnosis is given. Erected solely for Terebella flexuosa Grube. Fauchald (1972:319) erected Paraxionice, named for the similarity to Axionice (and to Pista), but with 16 thoracic chaetigers and a single pair of branchiae (compared to 17 chaetigers and 2-3 pairs in Axionice). Both Axionice and Paraxionice were included in Pista sensu lato by Jirkov (2001:520), but earlier Holthe (1986) had treated Axionice as valid, and subsequently Nogueira et al (2013) appear to find it is distinct in a morphological cladistic study.
