Pygospio elegans Claparède, 1863: 37 .— Foster, 1971a: 29 –32, figs 37–47, table 2.

Type locality. Normandy Coast, France.

Type material. Not found.

Records. México: off Veracruz (Foster 1971a).

Remarks. Claparède (1863) described briefly to Pygospio elegans, however, shape of prostomium and branchiae from P. elegans is different to prostomium and branchiae of the specimenes from Gulf of Mexico. The type material is not available, and as a result specimens recorded from the Grand Caribbean are questionable
