SUMMARY It is argued that the species currently grouped as Arenicola Lamarck should be distributed between Arenicola, Arenicolides Mesnil and Abarenicola gen. nov. Formal diagnoses of the family and its constituent genera are given, and suggestions are made as to the most convenient characters for referring arenicolid worms to their genera.
