 | | With very similar ecological requirements to, and with a parallel circumpolar distribution in the northern hemisphere as, Lineus ruber, Lineus viridis is not apparently as common a species. |
 | | Until recently only known intertidally under stones at Gloucester, Massachusetts, under the name Lineus dubius, Riser (1993) has obtained specimens from similar habitats or in clean coarse sand from Cape Cod to Blacks Harbor, New Brunswick, as well as a single specimen dredged from 16 m depth in Buzzards Bay. |
 | | Recorded under the name Lineus socialis (Leidy, 1855) as locally common in the Woods Hole area by Coe (1943), Riser (1994) transferred it to the genus Myoisophagos but subsequently noted (Riser, 1998) that this name was invalid as a junior synonym of the genus Ramphogordius. |
