Two new genera of Sabellidae,
Pseudofabriciola and
Novafabricia, are described.
Pseudofabriciola contains two new species, as well as
Fabriciola australiensis Hartmann-Schröder, 1981, which is redescribed.
Pseudofabriciola is similar to
Fabriciola Friedrich in displaying a membranous, anterior peristomial ring collar and pygidial eyespots. This collar is, however, complete middorsally.
Fabricia filamentosa Day, 1963, probably belongs in this genus.
Novafabricia contains two new species,
Fabriciola chilensis Hartmann-Schröder, 1962, and
Fabricia gerdi Hartmann-Schröder, 1974.
Novafabricia resembles
Fabricia Blainville except that the dorsal lips are reduced to low, narrow ridges.
Fabricia gerdi may be a junior synonym of
Fabricia bansei Day, 1961.
