Hi there!I just posted a response to Willy, also from Peru. He asked a very
similar question. Basically, there are many kinds of marine worms, and
even many kinds that live in the waters around Antarctica. Each worm
deserves a lot of study because they are each unique and we have much to
learn about each of them. Our group will be studying two worm species
in particular, both from a group known as polychaetes. We are looking
for *Capitella perarmata* and *Spiophanes tcherniai*. We're just
getting started and we'll share a lot about all of the groups of worms
that we find from the polychaetes, nemertina, featherduster worms, and
bristle worms.
Thanks for the question and keep following. We'll have a lot more
information about marine worms over the next week or two.
