The Makran coast of Balochistan (Pakistan) is rich in terms of biodiversity particularly marine invertebrates. The study based on comprehensive assessment of the morphological and taxonomical description of two polychaete species (Eunice petersi Fauchald, 1992 and Hesione intertexta Grube, 1878). The newly recorded polychaete species for the coast of Pakistan belong to the Eunicidae and Hesionidae families and were identified in benthic samples collected from the intertidal zone on Garyan and Bandari beaches at Jiwani of the Makran coast (Northern Arabian Sea). The descriptions, photographs, and drawings of the taxonomic characters of species and their distribution are provided. The specimens are deposited in the repository of the Marine Reference Collection and Resource Centre, University of Karachi.

Balochistan’ın Makran Kıyısından Pakistan (Kuzey Arap Denizı̇) İki Yenı̇ Poliket (Annelida) Kaydı

Öz

Balochistan 'ın (Pakistan) Makran kıyıları biyoçeşitlilik, özellikle de deniz omurgasızları açısından oldukça zengindir. Bu çalışma, iki poliket türünün (Eunice petersi Fauchald, 1992 ve Hesione intertexta Grube, 1878) morfolojik ve taksonomik tanımlarının kapsamlı bir değerlendirmesine dayanmaktadır. Pakistan kıyıları için yeni kaydedilen poliket türleri Eunicidae ve Hesionidae familyalarına aittir ve Makran kıyısındaki (Kuzey Arap Denizi) Jiwanio'daki Garyan ve Bandari plajlarındaki gelgit bölgesinden toplanan bentik örneklerde tanımlanmıştır. Türlerin tanımları, fotoğrafları, taksonomik karakterlerinin çizimleri ve dağılımları verilmiştir. Örnekler, Karachi Üniversitesi Deniz Referans Koleksiyonu ve Kaynak Merkezi deposunda saklanmaktadır.
