Phyllodoce (annelid)
''Phyllodoce'' is a genus of polychaete worms, which contains about 200 species. The prostomium bears eyes, two pairs of antennae and a pair of large retractile nuchal organs. The eversible proboscis is clearly divided into two parts. Species The World Register of Marine Species includes the following species in the genus : *''Phyllodoce adarensis'' Benham, 1927 *''Phyllodoce agassizi'' Nolte, 1938 *''Phyllodoce albovittata'' Grube, 1860 *''Phyllodoce algerensis'' Nolte, 1938 *''Phyllodoce arenae'' Webster, 1879 *''Phyllodoce armigera'' (Blake, 1988) *''Phyllodoce australis'' Day, 1975 *''Phyllodoce basalis'' (Hartmann-Schröder, 1965) *''Phyllodoce benedenii'' (Hansen, 1882) *''Phyllodoce berrisfordi'' (Hartmann-Schröder, 1974) *''Phyllodoce bimaculata'' Saint-Joseph, 1898 *''Phyllodoce breviremis'' Quatrefages, 1866 *''Phyllodoce bruneoviridis'' Saint-Joseph, 1898 *''Phyllodoce bulbosa'' Wesenberg-Lund, 1962 *''Phyllodoce callaona'' Grube, 1857 *''Phyllodoce canariensis'' N ...

Phyllodocidae
Phyllodocidae is a Family (biology), family of polychaete worms. Worms in this family live on the seabed and may burrow under the sediment. Characteristics Members of the Phyllodocidae are characterised by an eversible pharynx and leaf-like dorsal Cirrus (biology), cirri. The head has a pair of antennae at the front, a pair of ventral palps and a single median antenna known as a "nuchal papilla". There is a pair of nuchal organs and there may or may not be a pair of eyes. The first two or three body segments may be part-fused and bear up to four pairs of tentacular cirri. The remaining body segments each bear leaf-like dorsal and ventral cirri, the dorsal ones being larger. The Parapodium, parapodia are uniramous or biramous, and chaetae are present on all but the first segment. Genera The World Register of Marine Species includes the following Genus, genera : *Subfamily Eteoninae Bergström, 1914 **Genus ''Eteone'' Savigny, 1818 **Genus ''Eulalia (annelid), Eulalia'' Savigny, 18 ...

Velella
''Velella'' is a monospecific genus of hydrozoa in the family Porpitidae. Its only known species is ''Velella velella'', a cosmopolitan (widely distributed) free-floating hydrozoan that lives on the surface of the open ocean. It is commonly known by the names sea raft, by-the-wind sailor, purple sail, little sail, or simply ''Velella''. This small cnidarian is part of a specialised ocean surface community that includes the better-known cnidarian siphonophore, the Portuguese man o' war. Specialized predatory gastropod molluscs prey on these cnidarians. Such predators include nudibranchs (sea slugs) in the genus ''Glaucus''Gosliner, T.M. (1987). ''Nudibranchs of Southern Africa'' page 127, and purple snails in the genus '' Janthina''.Branch, G.M., Branch, M.L, Griffiths, C.L. and Beckley, L.E. (2010).
