Image of Bristle Worm
Description:
A colony of Myxicola infundibulum on the side of a dock. The colony is about 30 cm across and each funnel-like set of radioles is about 2.5-3 cm across. The entire colony is a ball of mucus that remains when the animals withdraw rapidly into their slime tubes. (Photo by: Dave Cowles, July 2014)
