Types of polychaetous annelids at the Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris

• Until recently, the polychaete collection at Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris (MNHN) contained a large number of types that were not labelled or recognised as types, including specimens deposited by Lamarck, Quatrefages, Saint-Joseph, Gravier and Fauvel. These have now been identified, catalogued, and transferred to a newly created type collection. We here publish a list of all catalogued types, including c. 1400 lots (vials and slides) for over 700 species names. Additionally, brief notes are provided about some of the most prominent scientists who have contributed substantially to the collection in the past.
