These organisms are adapted to a pelagic lifestyle, with body adaptations that facilitate swimming in the pelagic zones of oceans. Phalacrophorus species are often studied for their unique reproductive modes and developmental stages, contributing to the understanding of polychaete diversity and evolution.
