Comments: There are two undescribed Chaetopterus species in the NEP, neither of which is the Atlantic C.<br />

variopedatus. The Hawaiian Chaetopterus sp. appears to be introduced due to its relatively recent appearance, though it<br />

is not clear that this is one of the NEP species. The life history characteristics are for the Hawaiian species.<br />
