Pherecardia striata (Kinberg, 1857)
200mm

Book and web photos show considerable variation in worms under this name, and it seems likely that future study will determine that the name has been used for several different species. We are calling these Pherecardia striata, but it may turn out that they are something else. These have mostly been found under rocks on Kwajalein Atoll lagoon reefs.
