This paper reviews all of the previously known members of Euchone Malmgren with 12 or fewer abdominal segments preceding the anal depression and describes Euchone hancocki and E. southerni, with a subspecies E. southerni incisa. Following the special part, a key for the treated species is given, and a direction for further work on the origin of Sabellidae is suggested. 
<b>Summary</b>:
Of the previously known species of Euchone with 12 or fewer abdominal setigers preceding the anal depression, only E. arenae, E. incolor, E. limnicola, E. rosea (restricted) and possibly E. olegi are regarded as valid. Euchone hancocki and E. southerni, with a new subspecies E. southerni incisa, are newly described. Euchone trilobata is a new combination. The occurrence of pectinate abdominal uncini in some of these species is regarded as a primitive character, further suggesting relationships of the Chone—Euchone group with Oriopsis of the same subfamily, Fabriciinae.
