Etymology Not stated in the original description, uncertain. The name Lanice may be derived from the Latin noun lanitium ot lanicium, meaning 'wool' and probably making reference to the anterior region of the worm, where the coiled tentacles may resemble a tuft of sheep wool, or it may refer to the historical character Lanice, Alexander's The Great wet-nurse.

Diagnosis Original diagnosis by Malmgren (1866: 379-380): "Corpus antice subcylindricum, postice attenuatum. Segmentum buccale antice productum labium magnum fingens, infra et lateraliter lobum cephalicum amplectens. Segmentum tertium lobulo magno verticali utrinque limbatum. Puncta ocularia nulla conspicua. Branchiae paria 3, ramosae arborescentes, stipite breve, ramis elongatis, ramulis brevissimis filiformibus dense obsitis, postice altitudine decrescentes, dorso segmenti secundi tertii et quarti adnatae. Fasciculi setarum capillarium, a segmento quarto, h. e. tertio branchifero, incipientes in 17 segmentis. Setae capillares limbatae, breves, limbo striato. Tori uncinigeri a segmento secundo setigero usque ad postremum corporis obvii. Uncini breves aviculares, vertice bidentato, uniseriales, in segmento septimo uncinigere et novem sequentibus autem biseriales. Scuta ventralia contigua." [details] Diagnosis Prostomium compact. Branchiae, 3 pairs present on segments 2,3 and 4, branchiae branched. Lateral lobes present on peristomium and segment 3. Notopodia present from segment 4, 17 pairs, notosetae smooth-tipped capillaries. Neuropodia from segment 5 (setiger 2), initially uncini arranged in single rows, subsequently arranged back to back in posterior thorax. Neurosetae avicular uncini. Tube with or without branched fine-meshed fan attached to opening. [details] Etymology Not stated in the original description, uncertain. The name Lanice may be derived from the Latin noun lanitium ot lanicium, meaning 'wool' and probably making reference to the anterior region of the worm, where the coiled tentacles may resemble a tuft of sheep wool, or it may refer to the historical character Lanice, Alexander's The Great wet-nurse. [details] Synonymy Due to the sweeping nature of the synonymies proposed by Jirkov & Leontovich (2017) their generic changes have not been implemented at WoRMS - but note that a large number of genera were proposed to be sunk into Axionice, including Lanice. Axionice was described in the same Malmgren article as the better-known Lanice, so it's an arbitrary choice of the senior synonym (if indeed they are synonyms). [details] Type species The type species is Nereis conchilega Pallas 1766 by monotypy. [details]
