Feather Duster Worms [Lanicola]

Description

Lanicola is a genus of marine polychaete worms characterized by their elaborate feathery tentacles, which are used for respiration and feeding. Belonging to the family Terebellidae, these worms are often found in tube-like structures on the sea floor. Their tentacles can capture plankton and detritus from the water, drawing it towards the mouth for consumption.
