Description:
Description: English: Remarkable predator of the microfauna, they harpoon their prey with a saliva jet that allows them to keep them attached to the substrate with silk threads stretched like stays. Français : Redoutable prédateur de la microfaune, ils harponnent leur proies à l'aide d'un jet de salive qui leur permet de les maintenir attachées au substrat avec des fils de soie tendus comme des haubans.
