Diagnosis. Proximal part of proboscis with non-papillated medio-dorsal area. Dorsal cirri of anterior segments cordiform; median segments with dorsal cirri abruptly truncated on distal ends.
Description. Holotype complete 2.0 mm long, 0.3 mm wide at median part of body including parapodia and excluding chaetae for 19 segments. Body elongated, dorso-ventrally flattened and gradually tapering posteriorly. Prostomium cordiform, longer than wider; antennae and palps inserted in protuberance well outlined anteriorly (Fig. 28A). Nuchal papilla rounded, visible dorsally. Paired frontal, antennae and palps cylindrical and similar in size. Antennae and palps about as long as prostomium. A pair of large eyes, dark brown, with lenses. Proboscis basally with 30 irregular rows of papillae, containing 6–13 conical papillae, separated by unpapillated medio-dorsal area; distal part with six longitudinal rows of large tubercles. Terminal ring of proboscis with about 18 oval papillae (Fig. 28B). First segment not visible dorsally. Four pairs of cylindrical tentacular cirri, biarticulate, with short cirrophores and long cirrostyles, arranged on first three segments. Tentacular cirri of segment 1, reaching segment 5. Dorsal and ventral tentacular cirri of segment 2, reaching segments 9 and 5, respectively. Dorsal tentacular cirri of segment 3 extending to segment 10. Neuropodia and ventral cirri from segment 3. Dorsal cirri with well-developed cirrophores having dorsal expansions and present from segment 4. Anterior dorsal cirri asymmetrical, cordiform, subrectangular medially, with rounded edges and truncated distal ends, and rounded posteriorly. Parapodial lobes shorter than dorsal cirri with light brown aciculae and bundles of chaetae. Prechaetal lobe bilobate, with symmetrical supra- and subacicular lobes. Postchaetal lobe rounded. Ventral cirri horizontally orientated in relation to parapodial lobe, from segment 3, asymmetrical and dorso-ventrally flattened; ventral cirri anteriorly rounded with pointed distal tips, conical and elongated thereafter (Fig. 28 C–F). Chaetae compound spinigerous, uniform, beginning from segment 4 (Fig. 28G). Chaetal shaft with rostrum surrounded by denticles; articles with serrated outer edges (Fig. 28 G–I). Pygidium with one pair of cylindrical anal cirri; anal cirri as long as last four segments (Fig. 28 J–L). Median pygidial papilla discreetly visible (Fig. 28L).
Colour. Preserved specimens are pale yellow to opaque, except for dark pigmentation on the anterior-lateral areas of the prostomium and median-dorsal inter-segmental areas (Fig. 28A).
Habitat. Muddy substrates from intertidal regions to up to 30 m.
Etymology. The species name is derived from the tupi-guarani term Tamuía (tamoya) as a reference to the indigenous people who lived in the Rio de Janeiro coastal region, Brazil. As a homage to the late Prof. Edmundo Nonato, we have decided to keep the original name given by him to this species in his unpublished dissertation (Nonato 1981).
Distribution. Type and additional examined material were collected in the continental shelf of Campos Basin, Rio de Janeiro and Paranaguá Bay and Babitonga Bay in Paraná. There are several previous records attributed to Anaitides tamoya along the southern Brazilian coast (Rio de Janeiro, S„o Paulo, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul states), as summarized in Amaral et al. (2012).
Remarks. Nonato (1981) described Anaitides tamoya Nonato, 1981 in his Ph.D. dissertation, which was never formally published. Therefore, this species name is unavailable because it fails to conform to Article 8 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (1999). This species is herein formally named as Phyllodoce tamoya sp. nov..
Phyllodoce tamoya sp. nov. is most similar to P. hartmanae Blake & Walton, 1977 from California but differs especially in regards to the presence of an anal papilla in the former and because, regardless of the size, the latter species always has two black dots on either side of the ventral midline in anterior segments. Phyllodoce hartmanae has a mid-dorsal spot on every segment; there may be another pigmented spot above the base of the parapodia on either side, however, P. tamoya sp. nov. lacks these ventral dots; whereas one species lacks pigment, the other has a continuous mid-dorsal line. The proportion and shape of the tentacular cirri, dorsal and ventral cirri seem to be roughly the same between P. hartmanae and P. tamoya sp. nov. but the former is much smaller than P. tamoya sp. nov.
Phyllodoce tamoya sp. nov. is very similar to Phyllodoce sp. sensu Hartman (1968) except that the chaetae were described as beginning on segment 3 instead of 4 as in P. tamoya sp. nov. Phyllodoce tamoya sp. nov. is closely related in morphology to Phyllodoce malmgreni Gravier, 1900, described from the Red Sea and other tropical and subtropical seas but the dorsal cirri from median parapodia are larger and more foliaceous in P. malmgreni.
P. tamoya sp. nov. differs from P. rosea by the presence in the latter of a prostomium with anterior depression, long ventral cirri, and slender and cuspidate (tooth-like) papillae. In addition, the new species differs from P, rosea, P. pettiboneae, and P. concava sp. nov. by the presence of cuspidate papillae. Eyes are absent in P. tamoya sp. nov. and present in P. concava sp. nov., P. lamella sp. nov., and P. ovalis sp. nov. In addition, P. tamoya sp. nov. differs from these species by the characteristics of the median-dorsal area of the proboscis and dorsal cirri. Phyllodoce tamoya sp. nov. shares the presence of a median pygidial papilla with P. colorata sp. nov. Phyllodoce tamoya sp. nov. differs from P. medipapillata by the presence of foliaceous parapodial cirri and clavate anal cirri in the latter species (Blake 1988, 2001).
