The bobbit worm is a long, slim sea worm that hides in the sand or mud on the ocean floor. It waits with its whole body buried, then strikes passing fish and other prey with sharp jaws. It lives in warm seas, mainly in the Atlantic and the Indo-Pacific, and can grow to nearly 3 metres long.1

Ekhaya

It lives in prey-rich coral reefs, where its colouring helps it blend in, and in sandy and muddy sediments, around rocks and sponges. It has been recorded at depths of up to 95 metres. People may meet it in home aquariums, where it can arrive hidden in live rock.1

Sitya ntoni?

It senses passing prey with its antennae, seizes it with its mandibles and drags it into its burrow. It mainly feeds on many species of fish, but it also eats algae and dead and decaying matter.1

Ukuluma

Ityhefu iphuma ngamazinyo aso etyhefu okanye ngamazinyo aso xa siluma.

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ukuba siyaluma

Faka inxeba emanzini ashushu, ashushu kangangoko umntu angakwazi ukunyamezela ngaphandle kokutshiswa, kwaye ufumane uncedo lwezonyango ukuze kususwe amava. Musa ukuwemba ngokwakho.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Ukuba siyakuluma: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

kufanelekile ukwazi

Iinyaniso

It is the longest known member of the polychaete class of bristle worms, with the largest specimen on record reaching 299 cm.1

Some fish mob the worm by directing jets of water into its burrow to disorient it.1

It hunts by burrowing its whole body into soft sediment and waiting until its antennae detect prey.1

Fossil burrows from Miocene rocks in northeastern Taiwan, about 20 million years old, have been linked to this species.1

Despite its length, its body is only about 25.5 mm wide.1

Umqhekezi weentsomi

Intsomi: The worm can reproduce by splitting into several pieces.

Inyaniso: There is no scientific evidence that it reproduces this way. Reports of this appear to come from misreading movement in dead or injured worms. It can regenerate its rear segments, but it reproduces sexually.1
