Dinophilus
''Dinophilus taeniatus'' is a small annelid worm which lives in tidal pools. It is 1.5 – 2.5 mm long and about 150 µm wide, orange in colour, with two distinct dark pigmented eyes on its prostomium. The anterior part of prostomium has four large and many small bristles and sensory cilia. The trunk consist of 11 rings where the first nine rings are distinctly separate. The ventral trunk is densely covered with cilia. It is widely distributed around the UK coast, from the Irish Sea through to the Barents Sea. Ecology Free swimming ''Dinophilus taeniatus'' are found from October to June in tidal pools with the diatom ''Enteromorpha The sea lettuces comprise the genus ''Ulva'', a group of edible green algae that is widely distributed along the coasts of the world's oceans. The type species within the genus ''Ulva'' is ''Ulva lactuca'', ''lactuca'' being Latin for "lettuce ... spp.'' and '' Ulva lactuca''. Numbers peak March to April and decline with rising tempe ...

Polychaetes
Polychaeta () is a paraphyletic class of generally marine annelid worms, commonly called bristle worms or polychaetes (). Each body segment has a pair of fleshy protrusions called parapodia that bear many bristles, called chaetae, which are made of chitin. More than 10,000 species are described in this class. Common representatives include the lugworm (''Arenicola marina'') and the sandworm or clam worm ''Alitta''. Polychaetes as a class are robust and widespread, with species that live in the coldest ocean temperatures of the abyssal plain, to forms which tolerate the extremely high temperatures near hydrothermal vents. Polychaetes occur throughout the Earth's oceans at all depths, from forms that live as plankton near the surface, to a 2- to 3-cm specimen (still unclassified) observed by the robot ocean probe ''Nereus'' at the bottom of the Challenger Deep, the deepest known spot in the Earth's oceans. Only 168 species (less than 2% of all polychaetes) are known from fresh ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
