Status Reversed precedence of Paraonidae (in Cerruti, 1909) over Levinseniidae (in Mesnil & Caullery, 1898) is fixed by ICZN opinion ruling (1979). However, arguably Paraonidae was never under threat. Sees Notes and editor's comment under genus Paraonis. [details]
Taxonomy Strelzov (1973) introduced several new taxonomic characters to the ones previously in common usage. The presence of prostomial ciliary bands, of prostomial terminal sense organs and the localization of the nuchal organs must now be investigated. Similar characters have been used in other families, [details]Unreviewed
description Body long and slender with lateral parapodia. Prostomium with a single antenna or antennae absent. Branchiae present on a limited number of median setigers in most species. All setae simple, including capillaries and various, usually postbranchial, hooks or otherwise modified setae. [details]
