Diet of worms emended: an update of polychaete feeding guilds.
Polychaetes are common in most marine habitats and dominate many infaunal communities. Functional guild classification based on taxonomic identity and morphology has linked community structure to ecological function.

Biofouling Community Structure in a Tropical Estuary of Goa on the West Coast of India
Biofouling community structure was studied in a tropical monsoon-influenced Mandovi estuary in Goa, west coast of India. Monthly, seasonal and yearly observations on biofouling on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) panels immersed at subsurface water level were ...

Soft-bottom polychaetes from the Brazilian harbors of Mucuripe and Pecém (state of Ceará) and Santos (state of São Paulo) [PDF]
The analysis of polychaete fauna from 20 soft-bottom samples collected in different shallow sectors of Mucuripe, Pecém and Santos harbors provided a list of 34 different taxa, totaling 366 individuals. A comparison with recent published data revealed the

Origin of High Density Seabed Pockmark Fields and Their Use in Inferring Bottom Currents
Some of the highest density pockmark fields in the world have been observed on the northwest Australian continental shelf (>700/km2) where they occur in muddy, organic-rich sediment around carbonate banks and paleochannels.

Particulate matter flux interception in oceanic mesoscale eddies by the polychaete Poeobius sp.
Gelatinous zooplankton hold key functions in the ocean and have been shown to significantly influence the transport of organic carbon to the deep sea. We discovered a gelatinous, flux‐feeding polychaete of the genus Poeobius in very high abundances in a ...

We evaluated the potential of the marine bristleworm Hediste diversicolor (Polychaeta) to recycle side streams from aquaculture and biogas production. Polychaetes were fed along a gradient from pure aquaculture sludge (SS) to pure solid biogas digestate (

Luciferase of the Japanese syllid polychaete Odontosyllis umdecimdonta
Odontosyllis undecimdonta is a marine syllid polychaete that produces bright internal and exuded bioluminescence. Despite over fifty years of biochemical investigation into Odontosyllis bioluminescence, the light-emitting small molecule substrate and ...
