Abstract

This article focuses on the study of polychaetes, particularly the species of Magelona along the eastern Mediterranean Egyptian coast. Samples were collected from 18 sites during September 2021 using a Van Veen grab. The following species were collected: Magelona cf. falcifera (Mortimer and Mackie, 2003), Magelona equilamellae (Harmelin, 1964) and Magelona filiformis minuta (Wilson, 1959) (Annelida: Polychaeta: Magelonidae), which were detected for the first time in the Egyptian Mediterranean waters. In the current study, these species were described in detail and provided with comprehensive data on their distributions; in addition, the presence of M. cf. falcifera was addressed, which is newly reported for the eastern Mediterranean waters.
