Spaghetti worms seen on Singapore shores
| Family
Cirratulidae With grateful thanks to Leslie Harris for identifying this worm. She says "See the pointed head. That's typical for family Cirratulidae. Cirratulids have multiple branchiae going down the body but the filaments are often concentrated at the anterior end which makes them look like terebellids. I've got an image of something similar." This worm was about 5cm long and had lots of long tentacles. |
