This paper presents new records of Spio symphyta Meißner et al., 2011 and Spio martinensis Mesnil, 1896 (‘Polychaeta’: Canalipalpata: Spionidae) from Arcachon Bay (southern Bay of Biscay). For both species the new records represent an extension of their known distributional range. The two species have probably been present in Arcachon Bay for several years but were confused with other species of the genus Spio. Spio symphyta was identified at five locations in Arcachon Bay in 2009 and 2013 and S. martinensis at three stations in 2012 and 2013. A detailed and illustrated description of specimens from Arcachon Bay is provided. Important characters of Spio spp. occurring in the area are compared.Read less <
