The mitogenome sequence of the epitokous species (Phyllodocida, Nereididae) was determined first in the genus . The complete mitogenome is 15,667 bp in length, containing 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs and a control region, and their gene order and structure is identical to those of other nereidid species. The mitogenome consists of 33.5% A, 20.0% C, 13.3% G, 33.1% T, showing a high content of A + T similar to the other phyllodocid polychaetes. These results will be useful for inferring the phylogenetic relationships among the members of Nereididae within the phyllodocids.
首次在该属中确定了雌虫型物种（叶须虫目，沙蚕科）的线粒体基因组序列。完整的线粒体基因组长度为15,667 bp，包含13个蛋白质编码基因、两个核糖体RNA、22个转运RNA和一个控制区，其基因顺序和结构与其他沙蚕科物种相同。线粒体基因组由33.5%的A、20.0%的C、13.3%的G和33.1%的T组成，显示出与其他叶须虫多毛类动物相似的高A+T含量。这些结果将有助于推断叶须虫目内沙蚕科成员之间的系统发育关系。
