Serpulidae are obligatory sedentary polychaetes inhabiting calcareous tubes that are most common in subtropical and tropical areas of the world. This paper describes serpulid polychaetes collected from Lizard Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia in 1983-2013 and deposited in Australian museums and overseas. In total, 17 serpulid genera were recorded, but although the study deals with 44 nominal taxa, the exact number of species remains unclear because a number of genera (i.e., Salmacina, Protula, Serpula, Spirobranchus, and Vermiliopsis) need world-wide revisions. Some species described herein are commonly found in the waters around Lizard Island, but had not previously been formally reported. A new species of Hydroides (H. lirs) and two new species of Semivermilia (S. annehoggettae and S. lylevaili) are described. A taxonomic key to all taxa found at Lizard Island is provided.
龙介虫科是一类营固着生活的多毛纲动物，栖息于钙质管中，在世界亚热带和热带地区最为常见。本文描述了1983年至2013年间从澳大利亚大堡礁蜥蜴岛采集并保存在澳大利亚博物馆及海外的龙介虫科多毛纲动物。总共记录了17个龙介虫属，尽管该研究涉及44个命名分类单元，但由于一些属（即萨尔马虫属、原管虫属、龙介虫属、旋鳃虫属和拟蚓虫属）需要进行全球范围的修订，物种的确切数量仍不清楚。本文描述的一些物种在蜥蜴岛周围水域很常见，但此前尚未有正式报道。描述了一种新的海毛虫属物种（H. lirs）和两种新的半蚓虫属物种（S. annehoggettae和S. lylevaili）。提供了蜥蜴岛发现的所有分类单元的检索表。
