Eulagisca macnabi is a scale worm that occurs in the Antarctic Ocean, the Amundsen Sea and off the South Orkney Islands at depths of about 300 to 1500m. [2]
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. [2]
