A1317 (formalin anterior) and A1483 (ethanol fragment) are the same individual; synonymize as A1317. Field notes: L2; 1 anterior specimen only; large greenish; long articulated palps; has median antenna. Original ID "Hesionid 3." Photos: 7159-7160 x2.5. Previously identified as the proposed new species Amphiduros levinae, but A. levinae cannot be distinguished from Amphiduropsis axialensis so A. levinae will not be described. Former proposed paratype.
