Amazing diversity of Nothria (Annelida, Onuphidae) in the Australian deep sea

The epibenthic onuphid genus Nothria Malmgren, 1867 presently comprises 21 accepted species. Specimens were collected during six deep-sea expeditions of the RV Investigator from 2015–2018 to the Great Australian Bight (GAB) and off eastern Australia from Tasmania to Queensland. This work describes eight new species of Nothria. The data has been acquired on the following RV Investigator voyage(s) IN2015_C01 IN2015_C02 IN2015_E02 IN2017_C01 IN2017_V03 and IN2018_V06 with links to additional metadata, datasets, events, deployments, publications etc. If this data has been used in any products, please acknowledge with the following: We acknowledge the use of the CSIRO Marine National Facility (https://ror.org/01mae9353) in undertaking this research.
