Description

''Eulagisa macnabi'' most likely has 15 pairs of elytra that have a marginal fringe of papillae. It is brown-pigmented, especially on bases of parapodia and elytrophores. Lateral antennae are inserted terminally on anterior margin of prostomium. The notochaetae are distinctly thicker than the neurochaetae, but bidentate neurochaetae are absent.
