| In this regard their mode of life may have been quite similar to fossil and recent species of tubicolous polychaete worms, such as serpulids. |
|
| Spirorbis borealis, another benthic, tubicolous polychaete, releases its larvae at the first and third quarters of the moon. |
|
| In filter-feeding tubicolous polychaetes the buccal cavity is not eversible and there is no proboscis. |
|
| Thus some shallow water marine annelid worms contain considerable quantities of porphyrins in their tissues, but are tubicolous or burrowing in habit. |
|
| The burrowing activities of oligochaetes can often prevent tubicolous polychaetes from becoming established in a particular habitat. |
|
| Biofouling is made up of hundreds of species, such as tubicolous bacteria, protozoan, seaweed, mollusks, bryozoans, cirripeds, polychaetes, ascidians, hydrozoans, and so on. |
