In this paper, we analyse the genetic differences of the abundant polychaete Hermodice carunculata (Pallas, 1766) during two successive years at two locations in northern Crete (Aegean Sea). The ...

Annelid polychaetes are the most abundant marine benthic invertebrates; they play significant functional roles in any aquatic system. Among many roles, their feeding mode promotes transfer of energy ...

The polychaete Streblospio benedicti is unusual in that several field populations consist of individuals that exhibit either planktotrophic or lecithotrophic larval development. Planktotrophy in this ...

Electron micrographs of the filter-net structure in the facultatively suspension-feeding polychaete Nereis diversicolor O. F. Müller showed that the net is composed of an irregular mesh-work made up ...

Furthermore, to investigate if there were differences in the functional intensity (i.e., the product of polychaetes density and polychaete function score) between the estuarine salinity zones, we ...

The other proposed polychaete characters are problematic. Although there is clearly a serial structure in Acaenoplax, there are no external signs of segmentation.
