Modern references have given 1899 as the year of publication; however, MJW has original paper (offprint) that clearly gives 1898 on the cover. This same issue/actual date applies to several megadriles described in the paper

Haplotaxis gordioides: Comments
Comment:
Originally described as Lumbricus gordioides by Hartmann (1821), this taxon was later placed in the genus Haplotaxis, as its type species, by Hoffmeister (1843, p. 97); Kathman and Brinkhurst (1998 - citation in this account) recommend that this taxon be referred to as Haplotaxis cf. gordioides because no mature specimens have yet been described from specimens collected in North America; this species is considered to be Holarctic in distribution
