Lumbrineridae () |
|
benthic; marine; depth range 1 - 2500 m |
Indo-Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic and the Mediterranean Sea. |
The species has a slender, cylindrical body made up of many identical segments with simple, bilobed parapodia, which rarely grows longer than a few centimeters. The head has no appendages and is rounded to oval. It has an eversible proboscis covered with jaws. It is pink, orange, or brown in color. |
This species probably has a non-pelagic development because of its jaw, thus tagged as a predator like most other lumbrinerids (Ref. 76547). Either a carnivore or omnivore (Ref. 108299). |
