| Summary: | The presented article provides two new records of polychaete worms Pseudonereis gallapagensis Kinberg, 1865 and Pseudonereis sp., which were collected during coastal monitoring at Shamal Bander, Pasni along the Makrancoastof the northern Arabian Sea (Pakistan). These species were identified through a detailed morphological study, focusing on features of their heads, jaws, and parapodia. This study has led to a better understanding of their taxonomic classification and morphological traits and has contributed to a more comprehensive understanding of the polychaete fauna in the Makran region. This research has resulted in a significant addition to our knowledge about the distribution and composition of polychaetes on the Balochistan (Makran) coast of the northern Arabian Sea, as well as highlights the importance of further research in this area, as it may lead to the discovery of new species.
