Asian Journal of Animal and Veterinary Advances1683-99191996-3289Academic Journals Inc.10.3923/ajava.2013.409.436IdrisI. ArshadA. 3201383A checklist of polychaetous annelids identified within Malaysian territory
is presented. The checklist is produced based on the collected specimens by
the present authors and from published materials. Two species from the checklist
that are currently commercially exploited were described in detail based on
their original descriptions as well as current observation. In total, 64 polychaete
species from 31 families have been identified in Malaysia from 1866 until present.
The two described species, Halla okudai Imajima, 1967 and Diopatra
claperedii Grube, 1878 are harvested as baitworms along the west coast of
Peninsular Malaysia. The checklist has extended the distribution of these two
species from their previous records. The number of polychaete species identified
in Malaysia is lower than its neighbouring countries except the Philippines.
The polychaete research in Malaysia is evaluated and research direction is commented.]]>Allen, E.J.,19044879151Apstein, C.,189359141150Audouin, J.V. and H.M.
