Lacydoniids [Lacydoniidae]

Description

Lacydoniidae is a family of small, benthic polychaete worms found in marine sediments. These worms have slender bodies and are characterized by their simple, unadorned appearance. They are detritivores, feeding on organic particles within the sediment. Despite their inconspicuous nature, they play a significant role in the benthic ecosystem by processing sediment and organic matter.
