Errant bristle worms [Errantia]

Description

Errant worms are active, roaming polychaetes that can look like slender, segmented “worms” with bristles. On dives, they’re often seen moving over rubble or sand, sometimes emerging from burrows to hunt or scavenge, and they may dart away when disturbed.
